Killer cage, Renban line, German whisper line - those three beautiful variants have contributed to numerous fascinating and remarkable puzzles over the time (and still do till now). An interesting question is that: what will happen if I try to blend all those three variants together and make an engaging puzzle that utilizes the power of each of them? And here it goes, one of my attempts at trying so...

The following puzzle is also my first one to be done after weeks of recovering in real life and some holiday gathering events. As far as I know, while the opening is cool (and pretty tricky), the puzzle overall shouldn't be too challenging to everyone but I do think the difficulty might be subjective here. I hope y'all enjoy!




Rules:

- Normal Sudoku rules apply: every row, column and 3x3 box contains digits from 1 to 9 each once.

- Digits within a cage don't repeat and they sum to the small number written in the top left of that cage.

- Digits along a purple line must form a set of (non-repeating) consecutive digits in any order.

- Adjacent digits along a green line must have a difference of at least 5.
