Equality Cages 136: Equally different

(Published on 25. October 2024, 17:47 by gUBBLOR)

One more for the Equality Cage series, this time using Same Difference lines, originally created by marty_sears. The previous and next puzzle in the series:
Equality Cages 135: Locked out
Equality Cages 137: Double irregularity

All my series:
Equality Cages
EquaLite Cages
Shifter Lines
Shifter Dots



Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1 through 9 in each empty cell. Digits must not repeat within the same row, column, or box.

Equality cages: Cages must have an equal number of low (1,2,3,4) and high (6,7,8,9) digits AND an equal number of even (2,4,6,8) and odd (1,3,7,9) digits. Equality cages can never contain 5. Digits may not repeat in a cage.

Same difference lines: Each pair of adjacent digits on the lines has the same difference. All lines MUST have unique "difference values".

Kropki dots: A black dot between cells indicates cell values with a 2:1 ratio. A white dot between cells indicates cells with consecutive values. Not all dots are shown.

V: Adjacent cells connected with a V must sum to 5. Not all V's are shown.

Yay! It’s been a while since the last Equality Cages puzzle; I’ve been missing this variant!
