- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- There are grey dots scattered around the grid. The grey dots represent one of the following 4 constraints:
- White Dot
- Black Dot
- A V Clue
- A X Clue
Which dots represent which constraint must be deduced by the solver.
- If a cell is connected to different cells via multiple grey dots, each such grey dot must have a different property in terms of which constraint it represents.
- Every single grey dot represents exactly one constraint. (Example: 2 and 3 cannot be connected via a grey dot, since the grey dot would be a valid white dot and a valid V clue.)
- There are no negative constraints. If two cells have no grey dot between them, you know nothing about their relationship.
Detailed constraint explanations:
- White Dot: Two cells connected by a white dot must be consecutive.
- Black Dot: Two cells connected by a black dot must have a ratio of 1:2.
- V: Two cells connected by a V must sum to 5.
- X: Two cells connected by a X must sum to 10.

What a super weird and neat puzzle, especially in the later half, the part around row 3 and row 4 gave me the longest sigh there xd

Very nice puzzle, and much saner than it's twin, haha! Felt more like a 3.5-4 star puzzle to me, the rules were very intuitive and the solve path felt nice and smooth.

Niverio, you've outdone yourself. The puzzle flowed very well for me. One of the best 5/5s I've solved, and overall extremely rewarding. Bravo! :)
