Square Jam Heyawake
(Published on 21. December 2025, 18:11 by Paletron)
Rules:
- Standard Square Jam and Heyawake rules. Numbered clues are either a Square Jam clue, a Heyawake clue or both. Regions can have any number of clues.
- Square Jam: Divide the grid into square regions of orthogonally connected cells. A number indicates the side length of the square it’s in. Region borders may not form any four-way intersections.
- Heyawake: Shade some cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Numbered regions must contain the indicated amount of shaded cells. A line of consecutive unshaded cells may not cross more than one region border.
Solution code: The number of shaded cells in each row, from top to bottom.

Dayum, what an awesome hybrid puzzle with beautiful interactions between the two genres!
Despite the strong start, my scanning became awfully slow in the later half and it took me so long to capture the power of heyawake during that part xD
