Dual Slitherlink

(Published on 3. December 2022, 10:40 by Myxo)

An ambiguity puzzle involving Slitherlink and Touching Slitherlink clues. The puzzle should be relatively straightforward to solve, if you read the rules carefully. Enjoy!


Rules:

Draw a single closed loop along the dotted lines. The loop cannot cross or touch itself.

Each clue is either a valid Slitherlink clue, or a valid Touching Slitherlink clue, but not both.

Slitherlink: The clue indicates how many of the orthogonally adjacent edges are used by the loop.

Touching Slitherlink: The clue indicates how often the loop touches the respective cell - including edges and corners.

Lovely puzzle, in particular after I stopped misinterpreting the rules XD

Great idea! Really cool (and weird) logic for me. Ending step was quite tricky.

Thank you for the puzzle, I enjoyed it - twice :)
The "not both" rule makes this type really interesting- I would be happy to see bigger, harder, or just more of it.
