Dice Thermo Sudoku
(Published on 21. June 2020, 23:30 by Lifaja)
- Normal Sudoku Rules apply
- Along thermometer shapes, digits must increase from the bulb end
- Coloured shapes are nets of four identical dice (all clockwise or all counterclockwise) with numbers 1-6 where opposite sides sum up to 7
- The cubes represent dice therefore cells with a cube must contain a number from 1-6 (they do not have to be the same number, but they can be)
If you want to solve in penpa-edit, use this link. Note that the dice are represented with dotted squares in penpa-edit
Solution code: Type in an 18-digit code of the 1st and 8th row.

Hello Lifaja, can you please explain the 3rd rule little bit more? Let's take a blue dice and assume that r3c2 is 1 and r3c3 is 2. What does that mean for the other ones? Like where exactly that 1 and 2 can be placed on other dices?

It is part of solving the puzzle, therefore I will not explain it all. I have updated the puzzle to give an example of identical dice. Hope it helps. Good luck

Very fun puzzle! I was stuck for a long while until I re-read the rules and realized the dice were identical. After that, it played out beautifully. Thermometers did exactly what I predicted. Thank you for the well-crafted puzzle!
