Downright Odd
(Published on 30. March 2023, 16:47 by Nebuzaradan)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Killer cages: Within each marked cage, digits must sum to the value indicated in the upper-left corner. Digits cannot repeat within a cage. Every cage has a cage total; the three-cell cage sums to 15, although this total is obscured by the renban in f-puzzles. (Thank you TonyN for pointing this out!)
Renban: Each purple line contains a set of non-repeating consecutive digits, not necessarily in order.
German whispers: Adjacent digits along green lines differ by at least 5.
Play this puzzle in SudokuPad or f-puzzles.
This puzzle was previously solved on Rangsk's stream.
Solution code: Bottom row, left to right (9 digits, no spaces)

Awesome puzzle, thanks. It is downright odd that one odd digit is so powerful digit :)

Added note about cage total obscured in f-puzzles (thank you TonyN for pointing this out).

slightly tricky start in f-puzzles, as the 15 clue for the killer cage is not visible to me. At least I quickly came back to LMD to see the preview!

Really tricky unless you think about it the right way. I was stuck for a long time before I saw how to break in. Thanks for the puzzle!

Not too hard, but even after the break in there was fun logic throughout!

This was so nice. I love how the 15 cage worked.
Thanks for a great puzzle.
