God-Tier Fog Sudoku Makes My Brain Hurt!

When Simon read the rules, he wondered if Mark was having a joke at his expense!! Play the puzzle at the links below: https://sudokupad.app/gf8l5f4s64 Rules: Normal sudoku rules apply. Yin–Yang: shade some cells in the grid so that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected, all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected, and no 2×2 region is entirely shaded or entirely unshaded. Every shaded cell containing digit x has value 1/x; every unshaded cell has value equal to its digit. Product/Sum cages: each cage has a corner mark in the leftmost cell of its top row identifying its type. If it shows Σ=X, the values in the cage sum to X; if it shows Π=X, the values in the cage multiply to X (X is not necessarily an integer). Digits or values MAY repeat within a cage. The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits reveals their own cell and may also lift fog elsewhere in the grid. No guessing is required. ▶ BLUE PRINCE THIS WEEK ◀ This week's Blue Prince stream is available to watch here: https://youtube.com/live/9r4myloEFUU ▶ ZETAMATH'S WORM: OUR BRAND NEW APP ◀ We've released a brand new collection of sudoku puzzles by Blobz.
