Hakata (Shikaku Chaos Construction)
(Eingestellt am 29. Juli 2024, 07:53 Uhr von sfushidahardy)
As a child, I frequently visited Hakata in Fukuoka, Japan. The rectangular partition of the grid uncovered when solving this puzzle reminded me of the orthogonal roads of Hakata. Thank you MaizeGator for extensive testing and feedback!
- Chaos Construction: divide the grid into regions, each consisting of orthogonally connected cells, and fill each row, column, and region with the digits 1 to 9 once each.
- Shikaku variant: the grid is completely divided into rectangles of cells, each belonging entirely to a region. Each rectangle contains a size cell whose digit indicates the size of the rectangle (number of cells). No two rectangles of the same size may be orthogonally adjacent, regardless of their shapes.
- Corner clues: every cell with a corner clue is the size cell of its rectangle, but not every size cell is marked with a corner clue. The corner clue, if given, indicates the sum of the digits within the rectangle.
I've added a partially solved 6x6 version of this ruleset below to highlight the rules.
Lösungscode: The digits in row 5 with a forward-slash at region boundaries. For example, 123/45/6789.

Fun puzzle, and generally very smooth, though there was one section that felt quite a bit harder than the rest (might have missed somethign there though).

Nice, while it is much harder than 3 star for me. Spoiler alert! https://youtu.be/8cGMokshA_k
