Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits in cages sum to the small number in the top left corner.
Adjacent digits along dashed green lines must differ by 5 or more.
Digits along solid purple lines form a consecutive set, in any order.
Each set of three consecutive digits along a hollow peach line will contain one low digit (1,2,3), one medium digit (4,5,6) and one high digit (7,8,9).

I got stuck a long time but it is not the setter's fault.

I actually agree with the initial 3* rating, although it is a close

took me 30 minutes to place the first the digit, and another 10 to place the last

to start, you have to sort out col 1, which is a bit tricky. the rest is level 1, as long as you focus on basic sudoku.
theme seems to be finding collections of low digits

I think this was pretty amazing. Took me 34 minutes, which is way more than 2* usually takes so I wouldn't be mad over 2* rating.
The thing is that there isn't really one trick and once you get it things open up. I had to keep thinking throughout the puzzle which made it so rewarding.

High praise indeed! Thanks for playing :)

Fun puzzle, but I’m a little perplexed how it could possibly be 3 stars. I did this in less than 25 mins even with an initial logic fail caused by missing a possible combination for the 8 cage plus the renban in column 1.

Thanks!
Looks like most solvers agree with your assessment, I had set it at 3 as that's what I heard from the testers.
