that was fun! i had to keep referring to the rules to differentiate red/blue/green though: it'd be interesting to see this rule in more regular use, but perhaps instead of cage colours, use little arrows pointing inward from the contributing cells?

One of my favorite new rulesets / puzzles. Took a little mental effort, but was fairly intuitive and found i was solving vs. just trying to do new rule gymnastics

That was fun, the effect of the cages were really interesting.

That was a nice new variation.

Very good fun. Found it easier than disjoint sets, as I could colour things in better, the sets are smaller and/or contiguous compared to 9 separate cells.
