Don't Be Obtuse
(Eingestellt am 5. November 2023, 12:10 Uhr von ViKingPrime)
PUZZLE:
RULES:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
• German Whisper (green): Digits along each German Whisper line must differ by at least five [5].
• Renban (pink): Digits along each Renban line form a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order.
• Zipper (purple): Digits an equal distance from the center of a Zipper line must sum to the digit in the middle of that line
INTRODUCTION:
A puzzle more in line with what I had envisioned when combining Zippers with other line logic than the previous entry - clean, straightforward solve path and a playful tone. It's going to be interesting to see how things play out with Zippers and other line types.
Here are some puzzles from other setters using the same constraint:

"Set Free" by ThePedallingPianist

Sorry, as a color weak person (my friends say color blind) i cannot tell which line ist pink or purple. Please provide a Version with more contrast between the colors.

@ArnulfKoch - a CVD friendly link has been provided (I've added dashes to the Zipper lines); I hope that helps! <3 -- VKP

I solved it. But apparently the solution code is incorrect.

@Megalobrainiac - It should be corrected now; sorry for the confusion! Glad the solution was correct in the puzzle, at least -- VKP
