Thermo variant #39: Broken Thermos
(Published on 30. May 2022, 14:00 by djorr)
I've made a few thermo variants. All are standard thermo sudokus + an extra rule. Check out the others using the following link:
Thermo Variant Series puzzles
Rules: Normal sudoku rules apply. Along thermometers, digits must increase from the bulb end.
Variant: These thermos are broken! There are a total of 5 thermometers and each one is missing its stem (the straight lines). The straight lines act as thermometers, increasing from one end to the other. The digits on the straight lines begin where its thermometer ends. For example, if a thermometer ends in a 4, the straight line that corresponds to it would have to begin with at least a 5. It is up to the solver to match each thermometer to its corresponding straight line.

Beautiful puzzle of this variant. The thermos are broken, but the solve flow is not. Indeed it flows very smooth.
