Puzzle 214 : Snake Rows

This is a new variation on snake.Such a twist can be used on several puzzles,I had done this on tapa, for example.

Rules: Shade some cells to form a snake 1-cell wide,which does not touch itself even diagonally.Clues outside indicate the number of shaded cell rows in that direction.Rows in every clued direction are all of different lengths.

Puzzle 213: Statue Park

Puzzle 212: Handicapped Guards

This is a new puzzle type.I constructed two puzzles of this type,one in august and an easier one this week,which you can see in this post.

Rules:Clues represent guards.Some buildings - rectangles 2x2 or larger- are hidden in the grid.Buildings cannot occupy the clue cells.Buildings do not touch each other even diagonally. Guards can see all the cells that are not blocked by buildings.Guards themselves do not block other guards's view.Not all guards watch in all directions.Some guards watch in 1 direction only, some in 2,some in 3 and some in all four.The small numbers indicate how many directions the guard is watching.Determining which directions a guard is watching, is part of the solve. Number in big font is the total of all cells that the guard can see(not including the cell with the clue).

Puzzle 210: Islands in scrabble
