(Eingestellt am 9. August 2024, 21:30 Uhr von ViKingPrime)
PUZZLE:
RULES:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Normal Counting Circle, Kropki (white) and Kropki (black), X and V rules apply
(i.e. each circled digit counts exactly how many Counting Circles contain that digit;
white dots separate consecutive digits, black dots separate digits where one is double the other [1:2];
cells connected by a V sum to 5, cells connected by an X sum to 10).
Normal German Whisper (green), Dutch Whisper (orange), Renban (pink) and Nabner (gold) line rules apply
(digits along each green German Whisper line must differ by at least five [5]. ;
digits along each orange Dutch Whisper line must differ by at least four [4]
digits along each pink Renban line form a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order;
digits along each gold Nabner line form a set of non-consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order).
Normal "Diagonal" rules apply
(digits cannot repeat along a thin blue line that spans the grid,
each of which passes through the central cell without turning).
MODIFIERS:
• Two Truths and a Lie: Each of the above standard clue types occurs exactly three times in the grid; for each, exactly two of the appearances of that clue are correct and the other is incorrect.
INTRODUCTION:
This was made in anticipation of a Sudoku Twitch-streaming marathon, the weekend of August 9th. It should be fairly approachable, as far as liar puzzles go; if ever you wanted to try one, this would be a great place to start!
Here are some puzzles from other setters using the same constraint:

Lovely puzzle, approachable but still not without its challenging parts. I love the design of it with the coloured lines grouped together in the corners, and the horizontal blue line is hilarious. Lots of classic VKP moments in here

Beautiful puzzle with some nice approachable logic - especially for 2T1L. The third "diagonal" (horizontal line) got me giggling yesterday when I saw this in testing.
