Chaos is a Club Sandwich (6X6)
(Published on 18. February 2022, 16:43 by SenatorGronk)
This is my first attempt at a chaos construction. The constraint is fairly straightforward and not nearly as complex as the written description makes it sound. The example should make things clear.
Rules
Example:
Note in Row 2 that even though two regions alternate,
we still treat the 1, 4, and 6 as being in separate layers of the sandwich,
so the clue is (1 + 4 + 6) X 3, or 33.
The Puzzle:
Solve in CtC
Rules
- The digits 1-6 appear once in each row, column and region in the grid. Regions are to be determined.
- Each row and column has a club sandwich whose filling is all of the digits between the first and last region border in the row/column.
- Region borders separate the filling of club sandwiches into one or more layers.
- Clues on the outside of the grid equal the sum of the filling digits TIMES the number of layers in the filling.
- A clue of 0 means the row/column has at most one region border.
- Cells from the same region may appear in multiple layers if they alternate with another region.
Example:
Note in Row 2 that even though two regions alternate,
we still treat the 1, 4, and 6 as being in separate layers of the sandwich,
so the clue is (1 + 4 + 6) X 3, or 33.
The Puzzle:
Solve in CtC
Solution code: Column 4 + Row 6

I did it!
This was my first chaos construction I solved, I wanted to try an approachable one after watching Simon do a few. Looking forward to trying your 9x9 next

This is a nice bite-sized chaos construction. The logic is really clean and interesting while not monstrously difficult.
