Boxes Clash
(Published on 1. May 2022, 09:43 by Niverio)
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Purple lines are Renban lines. Digits along a Renban line must be consecutive in any order.
- Clues outside the grid give the multiplication of the box sums that the diagonal passes through.
Example: 1000 clue on the positive diagonal means that
(R1C9 + R2C8 + R3C7) * (R4C6 + R5C5 + R6C4) * (R7C3 + R8C2 + R9C1) = 1000

Solution code: First Column 7, then Column 8 (No commas or spaces, 18 digits)

A brilliant new ruleset idea, and some truly beautiful geometry tricks in there.

I think this puzzle is so good that I'm going to put "Partially responsible for Boxes Clash" on my puzzling resume.

Tolle Idee, hat Spaß gemacht. Ich hatte viele Fallunterscheidungen, tja.
Dankeschön! :-))
~Den Ring mit dem 99s und 1001s hat ein schönes Geheimnis, dass entdeckt werden muss. Ich habe probiert, dass Fallunterscheidungen dadurch möglichst vermeiden werden, aber das ist auch eine mögliche Methode:D
Ich freue mich, dass die Ratsel Ihnen gefallen hat!

That was great! Loved the product rule, may have to steal that for a puzzle of my own...
~ Feel free to experiment with the idea! It definitely has lots of potential that I haven't fully explored.
Also, I'm glad you enjoyed the puzzle!
