Rules

Each 5 by 5 grid is its own self contained 5x5 sudoku. Each of the three sudokus differs only by the nature of the lines in the grid.

In each Grid 5x5 Sudoku rules apply. Place the Digits 1 to 5 once each in each row column and region.

Digits in a shaded box must be even. Digits in a shaded circle must be Odd.

Top Left Grid: Solve the puzzle using the lines as Region Sum lines, region borders divide the lines into sections with the same sum.

Top Right Grid: Solve the puzzle treating the lines as Dutch Whispers lines. Adjacent digits on the lines must differ by at least 2.

Bottom Grid: Solve the puzzle using the lines as Renban lines. Digits on the lines must form a consecutive non-repeating set (in any order).
