digits separated by a V or an X sum to five or ten, respectively. digits on a pink renban line contain a non-repeating set of consecutive digits in any order. adjacent digits on a green german whisper line must have a difference of at least five.
Lösungscode: row five, left to right

Had to rate this hard only because it took me a while to find the break in. Once those first few breaks are cracked, it's a fun, smooth flow!

Beautiful setting, with the perfect symetry and minimal constraints. Very elegant break-in. Chapeau !

Wow. That took me some time. I gave up, but that tab in my browser poked me till i tried again. Somehow knew where the solution must be, still it was very hard to find. Now looking back it's goddamn obvious. Thanks for the challenge. Kind of feeling proud now :)

I'd love to see a solve of this one, after a note on approaching the break in from arctan, I was able to determine the config of one of the whisper lines, and then after a very slow process, I did manage to complete it.

this one is going to be...*ahem*...popular

(in all seriousness the title comes from the color combination evoking the movie poster; an earlier draft of this had more renbans and whispers on their respective halves, but also made it hard to find the important ones for breaking into the puzzle, so more XV it was)

Excellent puzzle but not 4 stars for me. Clever break-in!

Very neat! I love it when puzzles are focused on a single idea like this one to give a brief, yet challenging and intense experience.

thank you very much for your kind words, and glad you enjoyed it! noticed the renban part of the logic some time back and wanted to do something with it, finally found some interesting whisper stuff to bring it together (and i think the combination of the constraints here works well in signaling what might be important)

Fantastic puzzle! Amazing construction. Very smooth after the break-in. Because of the quick solve time I rated this as easy. Thank you

thank you for your very kind comments! thought the break-in would be a little harder, and wanted to reward the solver with some easy stuff after.
