Masyu[First Seen turn]



This is another of my several innovative attempts on adding twists to classics.Starting up with a small example,just to make the rules clear.
Rules: Draw a single closed loop following regular masyu rules.symbols outside the grid indicate that the turn first seen in that direction was either in a black pearl ( indicated by the symbol 'B') ,or was right next(this is strictly a white pearl turn and not any turn that is just next to the cell containing the white pearl) to a white pearl (symbol "W") , or 'N', a turn that could neither qualify as a W nor as a B.

LITS and more



Another new variation.
Rules: Shade some cells so that every outlined region contains a pentomino and all shaded cells form a single polyomino.No two pentominos of the same shape can be edge-adjacent.No 2x2 squares of shaded cells are allowed.
