Rules: Normal 6×6 sudoku rules apply.
Nullifier cells: Exactly six cells in the grid are nullifiers — their value is 0 (the value of every other cell is equal to its digit). There is exactly one nullifier in every row, column, and box, and the nullifiers contain six different digits.
Unique non-consecutive killer cages: Digits cannot repeat in a cage, but values can. Every cage has a different sum of values. Cages that share an edge cannot have consecutive totals.

Very nicely constructed puzzle! I feel every deduction is reasonable to find if you ask the right questions. :D (I think the more expert solvers might feel it is 2-3* difficulty? Not sure though..)
