Nonconsecutive: Any two orthogonally adjacent cells cannot contain consecutive digits.
Ratio Kropki Dots: Digits separated by a black dot have a 2:1 ratio. Not all dots are necessarily given.
XV: Digits separated by an X sum to 10, those separated by a V sum to 5. Not all Xs are necessarily given. ALL Vs are given.
Lösungscode: Row 1

beautiful puzzle. absolutely no need for bifurcation (not that we have anything against that). maybe those thinking it was necessary forgot the negative V constraint? thanks billybeth

Wonderful puzzle with a very nice solution path. I disagree with the “bad” comment. Here is a link to my solve video showing the logical path I found:

Bad, only brute forcing.

An absolute Monster, I liked it anyway, but I think there is a point somewhere in the middle, where only complex bifurcations brought me forward. I‘d love to see this one on CtC since I assume Simon and Mark could find a better way of solving this.
