Rules: Place the digits 1–9 exactly once in each row and each column.
Yin-yang: Shade some cells so that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected, all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected, and no 2×2 area is entirely shaded or entirely unshaded.
YY cages: Within each cage, the sum of the shaded digits equals the sum of the unshaded digits. Digits MAY repeat within a cage.
Clones: The corner cells with gray diamonds contain the same digit.
