Yin Yang Multi-thermos
(Eingestellt am 8. März 2024, 20:20 Uhr von yttrio)
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Yin Yang: Shade some cells such that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected, all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected, and no 2x2 area is fully shaded or fully unshaded.
Multi-thermos: Within the same color (shaded vs. unshaded), digits must strictly increase from the thermo bulb to the tip. Every time a thermo enters a new color, the values get reset (i.e., the value need not increase if the two cells along the thermo have a different color). A thermo may cross color boundaries any number of times (including never crossing a color boundary).
Additionally, the digit in each given thermo bulb gives the number of cells (including itself) that bulb sees of its own color in all orthogonal directions combined. Cells of the other color block the view.

This puzzle is approachable if you are familiar with the yin yang ruleset, but I personally found it easy to misinterpret the rules about multi-thermos :)
