Foggy Banana Split
(Published on 24. April 2026, 15:44 by SamuPiano)
Welcome back to another episode of drawing lines in fog! This time I used chocolate banana shading. I think this is some of my best work in the series, and I hope you enjoy it!
SUDOKU: Normal sudoku rules apply.
FOG (OLD-SCHOOL): The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from the surrounding area.
CHOCO BANANA: Shade all cells either brown (chocolate) or yellow (banana) such that all chocolate areas are rectangular, and no banana areas are rectangular.
LINES: All lines move orthogonally and end in circles on either end. Lines do not cross, branch, or share cells.
CIRCLES (SHADING): Circles may be contained in either chocolate or banana cells. Circles indicate the size of the area in which they are contained.
CIRCLES (COUNT): The digit in a circled cell with a line attached also gives the number of cells of the same shading as the circled cell along the line, including the endpoints.
SPLIT PEAS: Digits along a line must sum to a two-digit number, where the 'tens' digit is in one circle and the 'ones' digit is in the other.
XV: Cells separated by a (red) X sum to 10. Cells separated by a (blue) V sum to 5.

This puzzle felt just like knitting—so many interesting dependencies between the clues. It took me quite long, but I enjoyed every minute. Thanks a lot!
Btw: I am a bit surprised by the relatively low rating of 90% at the time of my solving. This deserves so much more!

I may need a chocolate banana split to refuel my brain after that exercise. It was quite fun! Many surprising twists and turns hide in the fog.

Two and a half hours, but 100% worth it! Thank you so much SamuPiano

Wonderful! The choco-banana logic was new to me, but highly enjoyable!
