Based on the 1980's arcade classic that launched the new technology of 3D graphics. It was quite fun to create this puzzle - it looks really great in "Dark Mode" on SudokuPad, but likely easier to solve in light mode.
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Each of the indicated yellow diagonals can not contain any repeated digits. (Diagonal Sudoku/Sudoku X)
- The digit in the bordered shaded oval is Odd.
- On green German Whisper Lines adjacent digits must have a difference of at least 5.
- Region Sum Lines The sum of the digits on a blue line within a particular region must be the same for all of the regions the line passes through; e.g. r4c12 + r5c123 = r5c456 = r4c78 + r5c789. Different lines may have different totals.
- Each digit in the "High Score" outside the grid is a Sandwich clue. Sandwich clues give the sum of digits found between the 1 and the 9 in the corresponding column.

The blue line in boxes 5 and 6 is super confusing. Is it saying that r5c456 = the sum of the 5 cells on the blue line in box 6???

Yes, that is correct -rrz
