Deconstruction
Rules:
Contained within the grid are nine non-overlapping 3x3 square regions, which must be located. Each region contains the digits 1 to 9 once each such that no digit repeats in any row or column. Cells outside regions do not contain digits.
The digits in each cage sum to the clue in the top left corner, and may not repeat. Cages may include cells outside regions, but such cells do not contribute to the cage total.
Solve on f-puzzles, CTC, or Penpa+.
Watch Simon's solve on CTC here.
Lösungscode: Digits in rows 8 and 9 (omit blank cells)

Really neat idea for a puzzle. Not hard, but different and fun to solve.

Super puzzle. As I was doing this I wondered if Pangaea might be a good name, though perhaps it gives the game away a little.

Amazing puzzle, I've somehow managed to screw it up at first due to being a terrible solver, but enjoyed it nonetheless :D

This is a beautiful, almost approachable puzzle, a little bit hard but not overly so. Fabulous logic.
Also very satisfying to have solved it before watching Simon's video!
