How can Cages, Regions and Boxes all be Different?
357Here's where you can try Numbers in Cages in Regions in a 6x6 by PeterJoe: https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/GhG9BQQfG2
Place 1-6 in each row, column and marked 3x2 box. Digits in cages sum to the clue in the top-left corner, if given. N represents a number that must be deduced. Build regions such that all regions from sizes 1 to N are present exactly once. Cage totals also indicate the size of the region in which the cage resides. Every cell is in a region. Orthogonally adjacent regions must have sizes of opposite parity. Orthogonally adjacent cells in different regions must be of opposite parity.
