Missing the target 2: Thermos
(Published on 11. September 2021, 09:38 by Joseph nehme)
This is the sequel for my "Missing the target" puzzle which was featured on CTC but with thermos instead of arrows.
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Normal Thermo rules ALMOST apply. Somehow I forgot the last digit of each Thermo this time. The solver must deduce where it is. The last digit can be anywhere that can be connected. It means that to every Thermo, you must add exactly one cell that is a king's move from its tip. No detours halfway along the Thermo. Thermos can NOT share their last missing digit. The last digit can NOT be one of the given Thermo bulbs or any of the given Thermo digits.
Digits on the thermometers increase in value from the bulb till the last missing digit that must be deduced.
- R9C6 is a bulb of a 2 cell Thermo.

@cdwg2000 Yes I agree with you on 3.5 stars. Too bad there's no halves for the stars. Thank you for trying it :)
