I accidentally solved it without the negative V constraint; it seems to work still! (That would be ~3.5 star difficulty I think)

I absolutely loved this puzzle. I was properly surprised when things finally resolved. Lots and lots of colouring needed...

Very nice, and I managed it, but at 71 minutes to solve, I don't think it was 2 stars.

Excellent setting, *** for me. You need to think a bit beyond the "usual" colouring tricks to get this done.

Great puzzle. *** difficulty for me. Colouring was rather approachable, but deducting the digits was quite challenging.

@xocolatl Thank you, but I got the negative constraint.

Martina, did you forget the negative V constraint? I did for a while.

There ist something I am not seeing. I have used every coloring trick in the book and it is not breaking.

I found this to be fantastic. Gives you what you need as you need it but you only need it when you've exhausted the grid. 10/10
