Normal Sudoku rules: Place the digits 1 to 9 exactly once in each row, column and box.
Kropki dots: Digits separated by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio.
Bug trail: Digits on a bug trail strictly increase from the start to the end. The ends are marked with lady bugs. Additionally, the difference between two consecutive digits is constant for each trail (e.g., one trail could be 2-3-4 and another 3-5-7-9).
Jigsaw Puzzle: The four pieces form a puzzle. Each pair of knob and hole that fit together has a digit that goes into both the knob and hole. Digits do not repeat within a piece / within each half of the purple piece.
Play on SudokuPad with solid thermos instead of bug trails
Lösungscode: Last row from left to right

I thought it was quite delightful! Especially once I remembered the ladybug difference rule after a long time stuck and broke through the rest of the puzzle rather quickly, lol. Thanks!

nice puzzle: interesting (and very strange) concepts, and nice implementation.
the quality rating should be much higher
koarla: Thank you! I made this sudoku after a date where we did a jigsaw puzzle with bugs on it. So that's where I got this strange idea from ;)
