Sudoku Variants Series (163) - Liar Killer Sudoku

(Published on 10. January 2017, 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.

Liar Killer Sudoku
Place the digits from 1 to 9 in every row, column and 3x3-block. There are some small outlined cages marked in the grid. For all but one of them, the following rules apply: the number in the top left corner indicates the sum of all the digits within the cage, whereas all of these digits must be distinct. There is exactly one cage in the grid where the condition is broken (either the sum is incorrect, or digits are repeated, or both). It is part of the solving process to discover which of the cages does not fulfill both conditions.

Inspiration for this variant comes from WSC2016

Solve online in F-Puzzles or CtC-app (thx Nick Smirnov!)

Solution code: Row 9, followed by column 9.

Ein geniales Rätsel!
Erst mal Draufstarren und: nichts!
- Dann fällt der Groschen und Feld um Feld lässt sich füllen. :-)

Unusual. Tricky.
But not unusually tricky for the SVS :-).
