Don't make me set a full size version of this.
- Partial Chaos Deconstruction:
- Find four 9-cell orthogonally connected regions in the grid, which do not overlap. Fill each region with the digits 1-9 so there are no repeats in any row, column, or region. Cells outside of regions do not contain a value.
- Sightline Loop:
- Draw a loop of orthogonally connected cells which does not branch or touch itself, not even diagonally. A digit on the loop indicates the total number of cells in the same region seen in all four orthogonal directions, including itself. Region borders block sight.
- Killer Cages:
- Each cage is visited by the loop at least once. Digits in a cage do not repeat, and sum to the indicated total, if given.
Solution code: Digits on the loop in row 6, left to right
