Hey everyone! I am introducing a new grid type (new to my knowledge) where a 6x6 grid is split into nine 2x2 boxes that will contain a subset of the digits from 1-6.
Much thanks to juggler for testing and feedback, AND for coming up with the name "mindoku" for the grid type! I hope to see many more mindokus in the future!
Rules:
6x6 Mindoku rules apply:
Place the digits 1-6 once in each row and column such that digits do not repeat in a marked 2x2 box.
Narrow 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. No 2x2 area may be entirely shaded or unshaded.
The sum of UNSHADED cells within a marked 2x2 box must be equal to its box number. Boxes are numbered in normal reading order.
Renban Lines:
Digits along a purple line must form a set of non-repeating consecutive digits in any order.
Lösungscode: Unshaded cells (counted in box sums) in row 6 from left to right.

Missed the "in any order" part of the renban lines and got stuck for a while, but re-read the rules and managed to finish it. Interesting rules!

Really nice idea, and I can very much see the Mindoku grid layout becoming a thing!

Im really confused by the rules. I thought i understood but after "completing" the puzzle my 6th row doesnt match solution code. Is there suppose to be oly one group each of shaded and unshaded cells?

MSDOS:
All unshaded cells (box counting cells) need to be connected to each other, but shaded cells do not all need to, however, they all need to be connected to the edge. The unshaded cells in row 6 are not the entire row.
