Broken Heart
(Published on 3. February 2024, 10:03 by Big Tiger)
Mend this broken heart by filling in the digits 1-9 in each row, column, and 3x3 box as usual.
The green line is a German Whispers line: Digits along this line must have a difference of at least 5 from each next digit.
The pink lines are Renban lines, each containing a non-repeating consecutive set of digits in any order.
Killer Cages sum to the total in the upper-left corner of each cage and digits do not repeat in a cage. Little Killer arrows point to a diagonal line of digits that sum to the total by the arrow; digits may repeat within the rules of Sudoku.
Solution code: Column 3 and then Column 7

Nice puzzle!
I never used the 33 little killer clue, but when I replayed my solution I saw that it would have simplified things at one point.
BT: I tried it just now and pretended the 33 didn't exist, to see what you may have gone through. And it does turn out to be possible. But since I made it just to be a fairly easy lark for Valentine's Day, I don't mind making it easier than it could have been so more people can enjoy it. :-D
