Bubbles
(Eingestellt am 20. April 2024, 08:00 Uhr von Nordy)
Yet another exploration of overlapping lines and symmetry, following in the footsteps of Point of View, Re-framed, and Lightning in a Bottle.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku, Region Sum Lines, German Whispers, and Renban rules apply:
- Normal Sudoku: Place the digits 1 to 9 in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
- Region Sum Lines: Box borders divide blue lines into segments with equal sums.
- German Whispers: Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least 5.
- Renbans: Digits on a pink line form a non-repeating consecutive set, but can be arranged in any order.
Solve online:
Note: I had to do some creative back-end work to get the Bubble Design to behave properly. If you notice any weird behavior (future updates to SudokuPad might cause this), please let me know!
Lösungscode: Row 9

Felt also 3 starish to me. At the box 5 idea I had very long. But rewarding. Very nice puzzle thx.

Cool-looking puzzle with a sweet solve! Buuuuut, this one felt a lot harder than casual 2*, y'all are bugging with the diff rating here

Thank you for this great puzzle, Nordy! Yesterday, I saw it in Tristan's Sudoku stream and came back to solve it on my own today. The overlapping line types yield very beautiful deductions with the little box 5 bubbles being the stars of the show. Super nice and clean setting!

Fantastic work. Visuals are great and logic superb. 2 stars for me although break in is the hardest part

@Big Tiger stay strong the break-in is the hardest part

Working the larger circles felt like cracking a safe! Great flow. Loved it!

Took me a bit to figure out the two little blue circles. But, it was really cool how they interacted with all the other logic I had done.

Not that easy haha

I agree with Big Tiger. It seems very hard to get your teeth into at first and then suddenly every piece fits perfectly with everything else. Very nice puzzle - and of course the aesthetics are amazing!

30 minutes in and I have 3 digits, how is this only 2 stars? lol
And solved 52 times - clearly I am missing something important (and fairly obvious). Will have to try later, wife needs my help.

Beautifully designed puzzle. I loved the geometry you created with the bubbles. Thanks!

Great puzzle with some very interesting deductions on the way to solve. For me this was definitely more than two stars. Thank you very much for setting and sharing this masterpiece.

very nice.
dare i say ... "smooth" ?
and all you get is a couple randomly placed circles, and a couple standard rules!
except ... there is nothing at all "random" about the placement of the bubbles
