Vault Construction

(Published on 12. July 2022, 16:43 by the_cogito)

Shoutout to Xenonetix for his help with the idea and execution for this puzzle. I actually set this puzzle months ago, and at the time there was a step that felt too hard. I've since made some changes and people seem to have gotten better at chaos constructions in general, so I'm more confident. I hope you enjoy!

Rules:
- Normal chaos construction rules apply.
- Pink cages are vaults. Digits MAY repeat within a vault. Any digits within a vault may NOT appear in any cells orthogonally adjacent to that vault.
- The largest digit in any given vault is equal to the number of distinct regions passing through that vault.



Solve on CTC app (recommended)
Solve on f-puzzles (not recommended)

Solution code: Row 1, then Column 5 (18 digits, no spaces)

Beautiful setting ! The region logic at the beginning and midsolve was amazing ! Thanks +++

Amazing puzzle! Many times I thought the geometry was absolutely impossible, but turns out it is just barely possible ;)

Superb puzzle! This ruleset is such a great fit with chaos construction.

The region division is quite a brain wrecker, the rest is fairly easy by comparison. Overall 3½ difficulty for me.

Very cool idea! One big obstacle in the midsolve, rest flows very smoothly!
