Hodgepodge, by James Sinclair
Normal sudoku rules apply, and all clues are standard.
Arrows: the sum of the digits along an arrow is equal to the digit in the connected circle, and these digits can repeat if allowed by other rules.
Renban lines: purple lines contain a non-repeating set of consecutive digits in any order.
Quadruple circles: a digit inside a white circle appears in one of the four cells surrounding that circle.
Digits in cells separated by an X sum to 10.
