Sudoku Variants Series (146) - Five Pair Sudoku

(Published on 13. September 2016, 00:00 by Richard)

For this Sudoku Variants Project I have planned to publish a different Sudoku variant every Tuesday. I will see how long it takes before I am running out of ideas.

Five Pair Sudoku
Place the digits from 1 to 9 in every row, column and 3x3-block. A grey area contains five different digits. Each digit appears exactly twice in that area.

Inspiration for this variant comes from Sudoku Cup #8.

Solve online in F-Puzzles (thx bbutrosghali!)

Solution code: Row 3, followed by column 4.

"A grey area contains five different digits."

Does this mean there exists at least one grey area for which this is true, or is it for each that it applies?
