*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
SSG's new puzzle Fill-A-Renban features two rulesets we're quite familiar with and yet... This is a VERY clever puzzle and we're left with the feeling that it might be exceptionally difficult if one doesn't notice one key point.
Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/dffJr73j2F
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. [Fillomino] Divide the grid into regions along grid lines such that no two regions of the same size share an edge. Cells divided by a green wall are in different regions. Given digits specify the size of the region in which they appear. [Renban] Each region must include a digit equal to its size. Each region contains a non-repeating set of consecutive digits that may appear in any order.
