Toroidal Galaxy Thermo Sudoku

(Published on 8. June 2020, 07:42 by stephane.bura)


Normal Sudoku rules apply.

The dots given in the grid are the centers of pointsymmetric galaxies. The grid is toroidal, so a galaxy can expand across its edge and continue on the opposite side. A galaxy must contain at least three cells.
Galaxies cannot overlap or contain a grey cell and every white cell in the grid has to be part of a galaxy.
Digits in a galaxy must increase as they move away from its dot. The digits in a galaxy may not repeat.

Digits along a thermometer must increase starting from its bulb.

@Mosti_Mo sure. This means that, for instance, a galaxy that contains R4C1 could continue into R4C9. Same thing with R1C6 and R9C6.
Hope it helps :)

@stephane.bura: Can you please provide an example for toroidal grid and how do you mean it here? I know the concept of toroid in math but not in Sudoku! thanks
