Country Whispers (6x6)

Rules:
Place the digits 1–6 once each in every row, column, and region. Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of some cells which passes through each region exactly once. Orthogonally adjacent cells across a region border may not both be unvisited by the loop. Adjacent digits on the loop differ by 3 or more. The digit in the circle equals the amount of cells visited by the loop in that region. The digit in the square equals the sum of the cells visited by the loop in that region.
Solve:
Lösungscode: Going left to right, enter the digits on the loop in Rows 4, then 5, then 6.

please rephrase 'Orthogonally adjacent cells across a region border may not both be unvisited by the loop'
For each pair of orthogonally adjacent cells across a border, at least one of them must be visited by the loop

Since the rules dont mention that the loop has to be orthogonally connected I thought diagonal connections were allowed.
Thought I was missing something obvious because I couldnt solve a 2 star puzzle until I restricted the loop to orthogonally connected cells. Everything fell into place really nicely after.
So you might want to consider adding that to the rules.

This was really fun! It was very rewarding to see the minimal setup lead to such an elegant solve path.

Very nice little puzzle! Larger/harder version coming perhaps?

Thanks so much! I have trying to set a 9x9 version, but so far it has seemed impossible to avoid breaking! -Math Pesto

At first, not being experienced, I didn't fully understand this part of the ruleset:
"Orthogonally adjacent cells across a region border may not both be unvisited by the loop"
But then everything made sense.
Very cool little puzzle

Very nice, good concept, that was fun.

Very nice! Once I got the break-in this was smooth as butter. Or smooth as pesto?
