Chaos Construction - Oenopion's Return

(Published on 31. May 2023, 22:18 by Niverio)

Sometimes it is very nice just to visit older rulesets and set more puzzles with them, mainly because how rich they actually are. I also missed setting a Chaos Construction for a long time, so here is one with what I think is still by far the best ruleset for the genre. Enjoy! This puzzle is for me easier than it's predecessor, hope all of you like it!

Rules:
Chaos Construction Sudoku: Place the digits 1-9 in every single row, column and region without repeats. Regions are orthogonally connected and have to be determined.
A digit in a clued cell indicates the number of cells seen in the indicated directions combined (including itself). Region borders obstruct vision.

Puzzle Links: You can solve the puzzle in either Penpa+ or in the CTC software. Both versions have answer check (Numbers for CTC, Edges + Numbers for Penpa+)

Solution code: Column 7, with dashes for region borders. (Example: 123-45-6-7-89)

Very fun to go back and forth between the clues and realize how some of them quickly become very restricted. Thanks :)
