- Normal sudoku rules apply
- Each line given must form a palindrome (digits read the same in either direction) e.g. 2837382
- Cells connected by a dot contain consecutive digits; not all dots are necessarily given
Solution code: Row 4 and Row 6

Very very fun puzzle! Thanks for setting! I'm no good with palindromes in general but something about this puzzle made me sit through and I'm glad I did!

Beautiful construction (love the name!) and super fun solve :)
EDIT: Many thanks for solving! I was playing around with the palindrome lines and then realised that it reminded me of the Portuguese tiles for which it is named. This led to me making sure that it would be a puzzle which required a particular method (if you catch my meaning; don't want to spoil anything!)
