"One Of The Best Puzzles I Ever Solved": WARNING: VERY Hard!

** TODAY'S PUZZLE ** We had a really lovely email from Jakhob telling us about his friend (with whom he constructs puzzles) wooferzfg's birthday and requesting we take a look at Loop Nurikabe, a puzzle they are so proud of they made a fridge magnet of it! This puzzle has a 100% rating but very few people have managed to solve it in nearly a year. (One of our testers spent HOURS on it and couldn't finish.) Simon decided to give it a go and started early this morning... it was a good job he didn't start later!! Play the puzzle at the link below: https://sudokupad.app/ay00mqlwli Rules: Every cell is either water or land. All water cells must be orthogonally connected, and no 2x2 area may be entirely water. Groups of orthogonally-connected land cells form islands, which do not touch orthogonally, but may touch diagonally. Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centres of some cells which passes through each island exactly once. The loop may only visit one cell in each island. If a clue is on a land cell, it indicates the size of its island. Every island must contain exactly one clue. If a clue is on a water cell then the loop must pass through that cell and the clue indicates how many water cells are visited by the loop between the previous island and the next island. Every water section of the loop must pass through exactly one clue. A '?' can represent any non-zero value. Note that, to check whether you have the correct solution, either compare your solution to Simon's in the video (which is correct) or play the puzzle in Penpa at the link below (which has an inbuilt answer check function for loops!): https://tinyurl.com/2yzxfbkl ** NEW SUMGEONS & DIAGRAMS PUZZLE ** If you enjoyed our recent Dungeons & Diagrams streams then definitely check out the new puzzle by sunnyjum, Sumgeons & Diagrams, which combines D&D and sudoku in a brilliant way.
