Fill rows and columns with digits 1-9 without repeats.
Chaos construction: Construct 9 regions of of 9 orthogonally connected cells, digits do not repeat within each region.
Each circle belongs to different region, the digit in circle counts how many cells of the same region that circle touches both orthogonally and diagonally(circle itself is not included in the count). Each circle has a different digit.
X: Cells divided by X sum to 10 and belong to same region. No other domino ANYWHERE in the grid can sum to 10.
Black kropki: One digit is double the other on cells separated by black dot and belong to same region. All such black dots are given. However, other black dot dominos can exist if the 2 digits are in different regions.
Lösungscode: Row 6, left to right

Very cool, thanks!

It's obvious once you think about it due to the Uniqueness restriction, but I think adding that "touching" includes diagonally might help eliminate ambiguity for people trying to get into it, I at least stumbled a little at the start.
Great puzzle! Took me about an hour, which is quick for a 5* for me, so I rated it 4*, but perhaps I'm just growing as a solver.

Great puzzle! For some reason, my brain kept replacing the "no 10-sum" rule with "no consecutive digits", so I ended up breaking it a few times before I finally got used to it.

Fabulous puzzle! Very satisfying, rewarding and hard, especially the region building midsolve. After a certain deduction the puzzle finally collapsed to the solution. Thanks

Awesome puzzle. Maxbe add touches „from the max 8 cells around it“ to clearify. Great setting. Great solve logic. Loved it thx.

Hi Aeon, do you mean "touch" orthogonally or both orthogonally and diagonally?
A: Both. Else the puzzle would be broken from the start in more than one way

Q: the number of cells the circle touches - including itself or not?
A: it does not include. Will add it to the rules
