Frameless NC 1

I really like para's idea here, to me it is a bit like a Frame Kimo but much more interesting.

I still have not solved para's original one yet and have had difficulty downloading the others he pointed out. So I decided to create one myself for two reasons:

1 to help me learn how to solve them (I've avoided looking at the walkthroughs so far)

2 it is a great puzzle type: so we need puzzles that are not just for the top guys. (Of course this is the forum for the top guys - so I'll tend to put them on the new solver forum in future.)

In order to make them easier you need at least one added constraint, for the first one I've chosen {plain} Non-Consecutive. (For the next one I'll try Windoku X.)

Note I did not use the red clues in my solution but I left them in for symmetry and to allow for an easier puzzle if you wish. I also think it should be solvable without the left r456 totals.

Have to say you're being a bit lazy in choosing the cage lengths here! :lol:


Solved it without the red clues. Next time I might try solving it without the left R456 clues.
