I Think I've Found Sum Thing (with sujoyku)
(Eingestellt am 27. Februar 2025, 19:55 Uhr von ChinStrap)
Back once again with our 8th (!) collaboration, sujoyku and I wanted to explore duality with index lines. Thank you to all who tested. We wish you joyful solving!
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Dynamic Fog: The grid is covered in fog. Correctly placing a digit will clear any fog in its own cell, and potentially clear fog in other cells too. No guessing is required.
- Line Building:Draw lines connecting the diamond start and circle end that have matching colors (and letters in the lower left hand corner of the cell). Some line segments are already given, all given segments are revealed at the beginning of the puzzle.
- Except for the given diagonal, lines may only move orthogonally from cell to cell. Lines may not cross themselves or each other, or share cells.
- Lines are simultaneously Index Lines and Region Sum Lines.
- Index Lines:The digit in the Nth cell along the line (starting from the diamond) indicates the position along the line where the digit N appears. For example, 3214 is a valid index line, the 1st digit, 3, indicates that the 3rd digit is a 1, and so on.
- Region Sum Lines: Box borders separate the line into segments with equal sum.
- White Kropki Dot: White dots separate consecutive digits.
All feedback (positive or critical) appreciated!
Lösungscode: Row 5 left to right (9 digits)

Fix rules not displaying key information.

The orthogonality of the lines is not mentioned in the description above. I read that one and struggled quiet a while, before re-reading the rules in the app. Which was obviously of great help. From then on it was a straightforward nice solving path. Thanks.

ChinStrap: Apologies for that! Badly formatted HTML had swallowed those parts in the page. It is now fixed. Thank you for solving!

Yet another excellent Chinjoyku collab! Really loved the path drawing in this, with some very satisfying restrictions forcing things in a way you wouldn't expect. Lovely use of the fog to guide the solver through it too. Fun!!
