#135 Eight More 8x8's

Updated: May 24, 2023

A follow-up of sorts to post #61, in which I collated a bunch of unrelated and unreleased puzzles that so happened to be the same grid size. There's a bit more variety to the difficulty here compared to the last collection, so I've ordered them by which I think is least difficult to most difficult, should go from 3-ish to 6-ish outta 10 Puzzle 1 - Taj Mahal Draw straight lines connecting pairs of grid points to form squares (allowing non-orthogonal lines). Squares may only touch at the corners, and all squares must form one connected network. Circles mark the centers of all squares drawn in the grid. A number in a circle represents how many other squares its square shares a corner with Solve on Pzprxs https://tinyurl.com/3fs9jv4y


Puzzle 2 - Putteria Label one cell in each region with the number of cells the region contains. Two orthogonally adjacent cells may not both be labeled. No two cells which share a row or column may be labeled with the same number Solve on Puzz.Link https://tinyurl.com/34n6dxz9



Puzzle 3 - Sukoro Place numbers into some cells so that all numbers form one orthogonally connected area. Numbers represent how many of the (up to) four orthogonally adjacent cells also contain numbers, and no two orthogonally adjacent cells may contain the same number Solve on Puzz.Link https://tinyurl.com/2p9x5mmj



Puzzle 4 - La Paz Shade some cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and divide the remaining unshaded cells into two-cell regions. Clues cannot be shaded. A clue in a horizontal region indicates the number of shaded cells in the same row as the clue; A clue in a vertical region indicates the number of shaded cells in the same column as the clue Solve on Pzprxs https://tinyurl.com/mr7rmded



Puzzle 5 - Unequal Length Maze Draw a non-intersecting path through the centers of all empty cells, starting from the S (start) and finishing at the G (goal). No two consecutive straight lines in the path may be of the same length




Puzzle 6 - Voxas Divide the grid into 1x2 and 1x3 regions. Borders must separate two different regions. Borders with white dots separate regions with the same size and orientation. Borders with black dots separate regions with neither the same size nor the same orientation. Borders with grey dots separate regions with either the same size or the same orientation, but not both Solve on Pzprxs https://tinyurl.com/2bene66z


Puzzle 7 - Kurochute Shade some cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Clues cannot be shaded, and mean that there must exist exactly one shaded cell with the indicated distance in a straight line vertically or horizontally from the clue

Puzzle 8 - Tetro-Kinds Divide the grid into regions of four orthogonally connected cells. A clue represents how many different shapes the regions touching the clue are in, counting rotations and reflections as the same Solve on Penpa+ https://tinyurl.com/9b5n6y5j
