Berserk (slow thermo + german whispers sudoku)
(Published on 18. March 2022, 21:28 by Aspartagcus)
A puzzle that has been long in the making, a tribute to one of the greatest mangas ever, Berserk.
On the 6th of May 2021, the author of Berserk, Kentaro Miura, sadly passed away, leaving the series without an end.
This puzzle contains the title of the manga, Guts' sword "Dragonslayer", the Brand of Sacrifice, and the Beherit Egg, and like Guts' life, it could be quite challenging.
RULES:
- Standard sudoku rules apply.
- Slow thermometer rules apply: Digits along a thermometer must not decrease (but may repeat the same value) moving away from the bulb to the tip (the tip of the sword is the tip of two thermometers).
- German whispers rules apply: Neighboring digits on red lines need to have a difference of at least 5.
- The digit in the circle is odd.
- Each distinct letter represents a distinct digit to be put in its cell.
The pretty version:
The solvable version:
Enjoy!
