Liar Japanese Sums #3: Renban Square

(Eingestellt am 8. Januar 2023, 21:45 Uhr von Niverio)

Here is the third entry. This is harder than both previous entries, but should also feel more satisfying as there are tons of new logic to discover, and be a longer solve. Enjoy! Estimated Difficulty is between 4 and 5 stars this time.

Rules:
Latin Square: Place the digits 1-9 in every row and column without repeats.

Liar Japanese Sums: Shade some cells in the grid such that clues outside the grid indicate the sums of the continuous blocks of unshaded cells in that row or column. At least one shaded cell must separate the blocks. For every clued row or column, 2 different sets are provided (Left / Right for rows, Top / Bottom for columns.) One set is correct, with correct sums in the correct order.(Always left to right or top to bottom.) The other set is a lie. Which sets are correct must be determined by the solver. In these sets, some sums are given as ? clues. ? clues are single digit clues, ?? clues are two-digit clues, and the leading ? cannot be a zero.

Renban: Lines given in the grid are renban lines. Digits along a renban line must be consecutive in any order. Different colors are used simply to distinguish between overlapping lines.

Puzzle Links: As usual this puzzle can be played in F-Puzzles, CTC or in Penpa+. Penpa+ and CTC versions should have answer check included for correct number placement.

Lösungscode: Shading of the cells in column 4 (S for shaded cells, U for unshaded cells), followed by the digits of column 4. (18 characters, no commas or spaces.)

Awesome and surprisingly smooth puzzle! If only I wouldn't be able to see that one line again...

Broke it quite a few times due to silly mistakes, but I'm glad I finally got there! Very lovely with a great logical path.

Very rewarding puzzle. Slow but logical deductions throughout.

@bansalsaab: it is a single blue line of 6 cells.

Hi niverio

I dont think i have seen bifurcation in renban lines before. Is that a single blue line consisting of 6 cells or multiple blue lines?

Great, thanks! Some really cool deductions in the bottom parts of the grid.

That was definitely a lot harder than the previous two puzzles. Amazing logic!

Can Renban cells be shaded?

~ Yes, Renban cells can be shaded, but the shading doesn't influence Renban's properties.
