ubahn: Draw a totally connected loop network through the centers of some cells, which may branch or turn, but may not have any dead ends.
A clue outside the grid indicates how many times the corresponding line shape (i.e. a cross, branch, straight line, or turn) appears in the corresponding row or column, irrespective of the line shape's rotation.
The loop network may not visit grayish arrow cells.
Yajiln: Darken each unclued cell that does not contain loop network. Darkened cells may not touch orthogonally. A clue on an arrow indicates the number of darkened cells in that direction.
Darkened cells may freely touch the grayish arrow cells. The grayish cell with two arrows applies separately in each direction.
