Rules:

  • Normal Sudoku rules apply, box/region shapes are irregular
  • Normal killer cages (no repeats in cages and entries sum to small number in the top left)
  • Normal XV rules (cells connected by X or V sum to 10 or 5 respectively, not all X nor V are given)
  • Normal arrow rules (digit in the circle end of an arrow is the sum of all digits on the arrow)
  • The shaded region where region 5 would be in a regular sudoku is an extra region, ie. there is a set of digits 1-9 in that region
  • Anti-knight constraint (two cells that see each other by a chess knight's move may not contain the same digit)
  • Normal Kropki dots (cells connected by a white kropki dot contain consecutive digits, cells connected by black dots are in a ratio of 1:2, not all kropki dots are given)

The temptation to bifurcate during the solve was unreal. Breaking the puzzle felt more like a series of small cracks that didn't quite go anywhere.
Super enjoyable by the end, but devilishly hard to get started much less anywhere.
