Pentominous Cave
(Published on 8. November 2024, 06:59 by Tacosian)
Rules
- Cave
- Shade some cells in the grid such that all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected, and all orthogonally connected groups of shaded cells touch the edge of the grid.
- Clues represent the number of unshaded cells seen in all four directions from the cell containing the clue, including itself. Shaded cells obstruct vision.
- Pentominous
- Divide the grid into pentominoes such that all cells belong to a pentomino.
- Pentominoes of the same shape cannot share an edge, regardless of reflection or rotation.
- Interaction
- Each individual pentomino is either entirely shaded or entirely unshaded.
- The unshaded cells seen by a clue must not all belong to the same pentomino.
