 Kazunori Room Day 8! This number placement genre has proven to be quite fun to set! Kazunori room seemed odd at first but I quickly realized it was an interesting genre. I'd love to see more of it! Rules and link Place a number from 1 to N into each cell so that each region contains each number from 1 to N exactly twice each, where N is half the number of cells in the region. Two numbers of the same value within a region must be orthogonally adjacent. No 2x2 area may consist of cells which all contain the same number. Clues represent the sum of the numbers in the cells they touch.

 Ichimagas Day 7! Today, we have 3 genres! They are pretty similar so I decided to include all 3 of them. Ichimagas are connection (not connecting) puzzles according to puzz.link which is a somewhat unusual type of puzzle. They were a bit tricky to make but I'm happy with the results! Crossing Ichimaga Rules and link Draw paths along the grid lines connecting pairs of circles such that all circles form one connected network. Two perpendicular line segments may intersect each other, but not turn at their intersection or otherwise overlap. A path may not turn more than once. A number in a circle indicates how many paths are connected to it.

Paths may not cross each other or themselves, and a path may not turn more than once. A number in a circle indicates how many paths are connect

 Heyablock Day 6! Today, we have a genre that is similar to heyawake, except that the shaded cells can be adjacent! Heyablock is truly an underrated gem and I'd love to see more of it! Rules and link Shade a single group of orthogonally connected cells in each region so that the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Shaded groups may not share a bold border. Regions with numbers must contain the indicated amount of shaded cells. Unclued regions must contain at least one shaded cell. A line of consecutive unshaded cells may not cross more than one bold border.

 Fractional Division Day 5! This one is an odd one. Fractional division previously had no puzzle on the database. It is pretty tricky to set, but it's a fun solve! Rules and link Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells. A fraction indicates the ratio of dots in the region to cells in the region.

 Disorderly Loop Day 4 of underloved puzzles! Today, we have a loop genre. Disorderly loop was somewhat tricky to set, but it has some really nice logic! Rules and link Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of some cells. Clued cells may not be used by the loop. Clues represent the lengths of the next N line segments appearing in the loop, not necessarily in order, starting with a line in the cell adjacent to the clue in the direction of its arrow and moving in the direction of the arrow, where N is the amount of numbers in the clue.

 Coral Hi! Apologies for not posting for the past few days. I was going through my finals at uni so I didn't have the time to post puzzles. Day 3 of underloved puzzle is a shading genre. Coral is kinda like cave except the clues are outside the grid. Also, any guess about the genre's name? :p Rules and link Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area and the unshaded cells are all connected orthogonally by other unshaded cells to the edge of the grid. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded. Clues outside the grid represent the lengths of each of the blocks of consecutive shaded cells in the corresponding row or column, not necessarily in order.

 Cocktail Lamp Day 2 of underloved puzzles! Today, we have another genre with diagonal shading connectivity. Cocktail lamp is a really fun genre that I'd love to see more of! Rules and link Shade some cells such that all shaded cells within a region form a single orthogonally connected group. Shaded groups may not be orthogonally adjacent, but must all form a single diagonally connected network. Regions with numbers must contain the indicated amount of shaded cells. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded.

 Ant Mill For this december, I've decided to showcase a more obscure genre for each day of the month! We are starting with Ant Mill, a domino placement genre that is surprisingly fun to solve! Rules and link Shade some dominoes of cells. No two dominoes may touch orthogonally, but each domino must touch exactly two others by the corners such that all dominoes form a single loop. Cells separated by a square must both be shaded or both be unshaded. Cells separated by an X must not.
