The Magic Column
(Eingestellt am 26. April 2023, 10:26 Uhr von marty_sears)
Here's the first puzzle that I had featured on Cracking the Cryptic, back in November. Thoroughly enjoyed watching Simon solve this. I realised from watching it that one of the given digits wasn't needed, so I have removed it here :) Please leave me a comment if you enjoy this or get stuck and need a hint.
Rules:- Each column contains the digits 1-9 once (with no repeats), plus one empty cell (which can be shaded green when found).
- Additionally, no digit may be repeated along any diagonal. However, digits may be repeated within a row.
- One of the columns is magic! Each digit in the magic column tells you how many times that digit appears in its row. Eg: the 3 in the magic column has exactly three 3s in its row (including itself.)
- Digits along a blue line always add up to 10. Blue lines never pass through any empty cells.

Wow, it's quite out of the ordinary to let go of normal sudoku rules :). Had lots of fun solving this one, it took some creativity to figure it all out.
