Hello, Kennet's Dad here. This is the puzzle I made for RockyRoer for the 2023 Secret Santa on the CtC Discord. With his blessings, I am publishing it here. Essentially, the puzzle is made up of lines that must be zipper lines and region sum lines at the same time. It's probably my best creation, so please enjoy.
Here is a link to Simon's solve
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Standard zipper line and region sum line constraints simultaneously apply to all lines. There are more detailed rule explanations on the puzzle page.
I have a YouTube channel where I discuss and analyze literature and poetry. And please consider a free subscription to my novel.
Solution code: Row 5, no spaces

Neat puzzle! Working around the arithmetic at the start took a short while but it did result in a satisfying solve right after :)
