Renban Walls Series

  1. Mini Renban Walls (Zetamath Solve)
  2. Crumbling Walls
  3. Gatehouse
  4. Watchtower

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Digits touching a purple renban wall form a non-repeating set of consecutive digits. A wall touches all cells which overlap any of its corner or edge segments. A wall also divides its set of digits into regions. Digits in a region are consecutive and can appear in any order.

The digit in r9c5 is greater than the digit in r1c5.

Informal Rules:

Renban walls are three renban in one. One side of the wall: renban. The other side of the wall: also renban. The whole thing: you better believe it's renban!

Comments are always welcome. Have fun!
