Very easy for a 0-value deconstruction, especially after coming from sudokuvania. I kept forgetting that all cells not in boxes had value 0.

One very tricky idea. Therefore 4* for me too. But very clever puzzle. Thx.

This took me a LONG time and multiple attempts, but i am SO glad i stuck with it. Incredibly rewarding, and i learned a few things about deconstruction logic that i didn't know before.
Thank you!

Very nice approachable deconstruction. The value 0 outside regions is a cool twist. Thanks :)

A great intro puzzle to deconstruction puzzles. I love how the region building interacts with the constraints in such a natural way.
