BYOK Renban Edition
(Published on 27. November 2021, 08:08 by Joseph nehme)
I'm genuinely enjoying setting these "Build your own killer" Sudokus a lot lately.
This one is the fifth in this series after “When X sums meet Killer”, “Ultimate Mashup”, “Building the Unknown” and "Whisper of the killer snake" which were all featured on CTC.
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Normal Killer Sudoku rules apply: The digits inside a cage sum to the total indicated on the top left corner of the cage. Digits cannot repeat inside cages.
- The killer cages themselves must be deduced and drawn by the solver. Each cage contains a Renban line which spans all of its cells. The line must start at the killer cage sum clue and can move horizontally or vertically through cells, but not diagonally. The line must not branch. Cages can have any shape. Note: The killer cage total must always be at the upper left corner, i.e. standard killer clue placement. (Topmost prioritized over leftmost).
- Renban line: Cells connected by a Renban line must contain consecutive digits, in any order.
- Cages may not Overlap.
