Place the digits 1-5 once each in every row and column.
TREE GROWTH - From one or more of the roots shown in the grid, draw brown "thermo branches" along which digits increase from the root. Diagonal movement is allowed, as is branching.
YIN YANG - Color the root and branch cells brown, and the rest green. Each color must form an orthogonally connected area, and no 2x2 area can be all one color.
KROPKI - Digits separated by a black dot are in a 2:1 ratio.
Solution code: Brown cells (in reading order)

Not sure if I'm just inexperienced with yin yang, but this was definitely 3 stars for me! Definitely a bit surprising this has only been solved 44 times in a week, it's really lovely and classic juggler which is just right for me
