This is my response to Scojo's setting prompt for last week, which was Non-9x9 grids and Extra Regions. I'll take any excuse to set a 6x6!



Chocolate Banana: Shade some cells such that orthogonally connected groups of shaded cells (chocolate bars) are square or rectangular, and orthogonally connected groups of unshaded cells (bananas) are not.

Cocoa Chaos Construction: Find six non-overlapping, orthogonally connected 6-cell regions such that any chocolate bar or banana is entirely contained within one single region. Fill every row, column and region with the digits 1-6 once each.

Banana Balance: The sum of all shaded cells is equal to the sum of all unshaded cells.

Circles: A digit in a circle (including Between Line circles) show the total number of cells in that chocolate bar or banana. Additionally, the circles represent an extra region, i.e. they contain the digits 1-6 once each.

Between Line: digits on a line must be strictly between the digits in the circles on its ends, and may repeat if allowed by other rules.
