Which Line is it Anyway?
(Eingestellt am 8. Dezember 2022, 06:00 Uhr von XeonRisq)
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Entropic Lines - Any set of three sequential cells along a beige line must contain a low (123), middle (456), and high (789) digit.
- German Whisper - Adjacent numbers on a green line must have a difference of 5 or greater.
- X-Sums - Clues outside the grid indicate the sum of the first X digits, where X is the first digit seen.
- Also, the digits along the X-Sum must conform to either an entropic line or a German whisper line, which is to be determined by the solver.

What a wonderful puzzle!
I had three trys, because I first thought, that the WHOLE row or column must be Entropy/GW...
Thank you for this brilliant puzzle! :-))

This will be my first comment here, but this puzzle is worth it. And I usually skip puzzles with outside clues! thank you for setting this one.

Appreciate the solve and the feedback. It's funny you should make the comment about not liking outside clues, because my dislike of outside clues is what caused me to see if I could set a puzzle with them. Glad you found the final product worth trying, solving, and ultimately commenting on.

Had a blast! I loved the puzzle from start to finish, especially the constraint on the X-Sum lines. Thanks mate!

Absolutely brilliant puzzle! As you've used several of my favourite constraints I've probably found most of the intended solving path with its beautiful logic. Really nice and thanks again:)

You're very welcome and glad you enjoyed the puzzle. From my exploration, I've found that it's quite dicey what line constraints mix with outside clues, but I am happy with the way this one turned out. Really appreciate the kind words and the solve.
