Puzzlerium tour: Nurikabe (Artificial Islands)

This post concludes the "Nurikabe Special" series. 

The converse of this variant uses the distinct islands constraint and can be a tad more intuitive at times. 

 





Rules: Shade some cells so that all shaded cells are connected and no 2×2 square is completely shaded. Cells with numbers cannot be shaded. Each group of connected unshaded cells forms an island; islands can touch each other diagonally. Each island must contain exactly one given number, and that number indicates the area of the island in number of cells. Also, all islands of the same size must be identical to each other.
