22 coincidence
(Published on 2. August 2024, 15:56 by Elytron)
Hello, last week I had my 22nd birthday and as a little nod to this, I decided to try setting a sudoku based around the number. This kind of ruleset got me a bit out of my comfort zone, which is why I would be grateful for any tips for improvement! :)

Solve with SudokuPad.
Rules:
- There are two 6x6 sudokus for which normal sudoku rules apply.
- The two sudokus can be overlapped without rotation, such that in the overlapping region, the digits coincide and add up to 22 (in each region separately).
- Along green German whispers lines, digits must differ from their neighbors by at least 3.
- Digits on a purple Renban line must be a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits (in any order).
Example:
In this example, the (green) overlapping region sums up to 50 (instead of 22).
Solution code: Row 1 of both sudokus, from left to right, starting with the left sudoku (12 digits).

Wow! The break in is such a beautifully clever idea, and the remaining puzzle is far from trivial. Really wonderful puzzle, thank you! And happy birthday for last week!
