Nice puzzle and very easy if one does not forget halfway the global entropy rule. The gray boxing was very confusing with fog of war. Is it needed at all? The wording is wrong up to my limited English knowledge. Why not simply "Arrows point to the smaller number". The current wording while being ambiguous means more that it applies only between two shaded cells, which turned out not to be the case.
