- Chaos Construction: Divide the grid into regions, each consisting of nine orthogonally connected cells. Each row, column and region contain the digits 1-9 once each.
- Region Sum Lines: Region boundaries divide blue lines into at least two sections of equal sum.
- Digits in marked squares are the sum of digits seen orthogonally within the same region as themselves. Region boundaries block sight.

Neat and elegant! Although I must admit I don't fully understand the math involved for the break-in.

Quite tricky, but the given square cells are really cool. Definitely adds a cool dynamic to some great CC/RSL fare. Thank you!

Are digits in marked squares included in the sum?
