Thank you for the nice puzzle, as a beginner it still took me 55min, but I enjoyed it very much. There was mostly an "easy" find for the next location to focus on.

My puzzle was full of markups for the first 15-20 minutes and I felt hopeless... but the second I got my first digit the ball just started rolling. Absolutely loved the logic and flow of this puzzle.

Great puzzle - I really liked how all of the rules worked together. Still pretty new at a couple of the variants so it took me a little longer (and some backtracking) but very satisfying in the end.

That was an enjoyable solve. Definitely a GAS type puzzle, if you are familiar with the variant rules being used already. I was able to take it from start to finish without getting stuck once, which is how I imagine GAS puzzles should be.
I enjoyed how the V clues restricted the Renban lines and then the Whisper lines helped define where the other digits would go.
Thanks for the puzzle.
