Clockwork Yajilin: Orientation
(Eingestellt am 14. Februar 2024, 01:40 Uhr von wisty)
This is the first in a series of Yajilin puzzles that I've been developing! :>
Thank you so much everyone who helped out with testing, especially filuta and chameleon for your constructive feedback!
• Shade some white cells such that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent, and draw a loop that travels orthogonally through all unshaded white cells without intersecting itself or crossing bold borders.
• Clues marked with arrows give the sum of all shaded cells in the given direction, or directions combined, where a cell's value is 1 if it is inside the loop and -1 if it is outside the loop.
• Gears visited by the loop must alternate inside and outside (or vice versa). A gear is considered visited when the loop travels from a cell not touching that gear to a cell touching that gear and no other gears, either directly or through a cell touching multiple gears.
Clockwork Yajilin series:
• Orientation ◄
• Parallel Motion
• Parity Point
• Challenger
• Blackout Cipher
Lösungscode: using + and - for shaded cells, T for a turn and S for a straight segment: row 5 followed by column 6 (ignore given grey cells)

Very nice introduction puzzle ! Figuring out the gear rule was not obvious for me but it was good fun after that. Also, very nice visual with the mechanical design. Reminded me of a comics called "Cités obscures". Thanks :)
