I presume that the whispers line rule is supposed to read that the numbers must differ by at least 3? not 5?

Great puzzle! I think I found the real break-in realtively quickly by pure luck, that is by focusing on the right cells, of which there are so many in this puzzle. After that everything resolved really smoothly and beautifully. Thank you

Well, the top three rows have me pretty stumped too. What am I missing in the rules?

I want to ask a question, how does Adjacent digits along a green line must differ by at least 5 and it is 1 to 6, how to fill the box in the top since the it will be made out of 1s and 6s only!
