Moon-or-Sun (adapted from Nikoli)

  • Draw a line to make a single loop.
  • Lines pass through the centers of cells, horizontally, vertically, or turning. The loop never crosses itself, branches off, or goes through the same cell twice.
  • A rectangle, bordered by bold lines, is called a "room".
  • Color each room blue or yellow.
  • The loop must visit each room once, alternating between blue and yellow rooms.
  • In a blue room, you must visit all of the moons and none of the suns; in a yellow room, you must visit all of the suns and none of the moons.

  • $\begingroup$ Seeing the misunderstanding and all that, I'd like to ask clearly: passing through a room WITHOUT a sun or moon counts as part of the sequence? (Ex: Can't go moon-moon but can go moon-blank-moon?) $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ A suggestion for rephrasing the rules to account for empty rooms: "Color each room blue or yellow. Draw a loop visiting each room once, alternating between blue and yellow rooms. In a blue room, you must visit all of the moons and none of the sums; in a yellow room, you must visit all of the suns and none of the moons." $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Welp, got to admit that indeed the original rules may confuse the solver when they are given empty room. For @Belhenix , that's correct: can't go moon-moon but moon-blank-moon is okay (if the second room doesn't contain any sun). And Deusovi , I like and agree with the suggestion, will update the rules accordingly. $\endgroup$
