Tenleven Slythera Crimsonite
I made this puzzle dedicated to my son which is going to turn 1 on the 10th of November, and I thought it would be interesting to create something unique with just the clues that are related to his birthday. This is what I did come up and hope you enjoy it.
Rules:
Draw four 3x3 boxes in the grid that don't overlap, and fill them with the digits 1-9. Digits can't repeat in a row, column or 3x3 box. Cells that are not in any box are empty, and their value is 0. Digits can't repeat in a cage, and sum to the clue given in the top-leftmost cell of that cage. Draw four snakes, each existing completely inside one of the 3x3 boxes. Each snake is a one cell wide path that only moves orthogonally, and must pass through every cell of its box. Adjacent digits along a snake sum to 10 or 11.
Lösungscode: Row 2 followed by row 6.

I needed to abuse the solution check and restart the puzzle three times to understand what can happen on the board, but when I finally understood the basics everything was nice and elegant. Thanks for setting!
