Liar Japanese Sums #7 - Ciphered Nurikabe
(Eingestellt am 1. Dezember 2023, 00:53 Uhr von Niverio)
Rules:
Liar Japanese Sums: Shade some cells in the grid such that clues outside the grid indicate the sums of the continuous blocks of unshaded cells in that row or column. Place digits from 1-9 in every unshaded cell such that no digit repeats in a row or column. At least one shaded cell must separate the blocks. For every clued row or column, 2 different sets are provided (Left / Right for rows, Top / Bottom for columns.) One set is correct, with correct sums in the correct order.(Always left to right or top to bottom.) The other set is a lie (As a whole, individual parts of the liar set can still be sometimes correct). Which sets are correct must be determined by the solver. In these sets, some sums are given as ? clues. ? clues are single digit clues, ?? clues are two-digit clues, and the leading ? cannot be a zero.
Nurikabe: All shaded cells are orthogonally connected without creating a 2x2 area and divide the grid into areas of unshaded cells. Each unshaded area contains exactly one clue, and that clue's value indicates the size of that island. Digits cannot repeat on an island.
Cipher: Clues are ciphered, where every distinct letter stands in for a unique digit 0-9. Every digit is assigned to a unique letter as well. The ciphering for the inside grid and outside clues are the same.

Is the value of the clue also the value of the cell for the interior clues?

Maybe the hardest puzzle I ever solved. What a struggle !
But the logic was smooth and interesting

Awesome construction ! Probably the hardest of the serie for me. Some steps require a very thorough understanding of the ruleset. I hope there will be more puzzles in this serie ! Thanks :)

I found this to be the most difficult of the series, but still really enjoyed the deductions!

Really liking this liar Japanese sums series! I originally got stuck because I was treating the islands as it were Suguru rules, but the Nurikabe constraint worked really nicely. Great setting once again!
