Chaotic Evil
(Published on 29. April 2022, 00:00 by mathpesto)
Comments and ratings are much appreciated, and please check out my other puzzles here. Be sure to mark any comments with spoilers as "hidden." Enjoy!
Rules:
Each row, column, and region contains the digits 1–9 exactly once. Regions must be determined. Digits in a cage are in the same region and sum to the given total. A white dot connects adjacent digits that are consecutive and in the same region. A black dot connects adjacent digits that are in a 1:2 ratio and in separate regions. All possible dots are given. (Adjacent cells can have consecutive digits without a white dot between them, so long as they’re in separate regions. Adjacent cells can be in a 1:2 ratio without a black dot, so long as they’re in the same region.)
Puzzle:
Solution code: Type the digits (no spaces) of the region containing R7C7 as follows: The digits of the region's topmost row (left to right), the digits of the region's second row (left to right), etc.

Really fun puzzle. This is definitely a lot more interesting than lawful good. :)

After lulling one into pleasant complacency, the endgame is like, what?! Should have taken the title seriously:) Deliciously evil ending. Thanks for setting this, @ mathpesto :)

What a twisted ending that was ! Almost thought I had broken it until I realized how truly Evil this puzzle was ! Deliciously mephistophelian !

Very nice and troll puzzle! Loved that ending. However, I'm extremely surprised with the given rating of 4, as the puzzle took me 17 minutes total to solve. I found it more of a difficulty of 2.5/5. Regardless, it was an absolute pleasure!

Great puzzle! The final deductions to place the regions were devious.

You truly are an evil genius, mathpesto... The rollercoaster of emotions at the very last step is something very few sudoku can accomplish... Take a bow, what a construction!

Das kann Mody erst lesen, wenn sie es gelöst hat. Du musst offen antworten. Oder der Autor sein.

Mody, Du bist nahe dran, aber die Killer-Box ist bei Dir in 2 Gebiete unterteilt, das ist nicht erlaubt.

Das Killer-Sudoku-Gebiet muss ganz in einem Gebiet liegen.
