Cake: Find the Liar Layer

(Published on 14. July 2022, 05:17 by Will Power)

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Between Lines- Numbers on horizontal lines are between the numbers in the circles attached to the line. Renban Lines- Numbers on pink lines are a set of consecutive, non-repeating numbers, in any order. All possible horizontal Renban lines are shown, except none have all nine numbers. ONE RENBAN LINE IS A LIAR, and the numbers do not match Renban requirements. Numbers with an X between them sum to 10. Not all possible X are shown. Numbers with a white dot between them are consecutive. All possible white dots ON EACH LAYER OF THE CAKE are shown. The cake consists of all Between Lines and circles.

This has to be one of my favorite puzzles you've published, WP. Can't believe I missed it until now!

@PinkNickels Thanks so much for digging into my archives. I think this one was/is skipped because of the between lines and also the liar requirement. I usually consider 80+ people solving to be my goal. If that doesn't happen, I usually don't reprise the rules used in other puzzles. Your solve brings this one to 35. Peace to you. -Will Power

Who knows why it only has 35 solves...could be randomness of timing when you originally posted it. Regardless, it has a very high rating of 96%, indicating it deserves to have more solves!

Great puzzle @Will, I've solved it not being aware of the liar layer, but looking deeper I have found it!.. The solving path is fantastic, great interactions and deductions, thank you again for setting and sharing it!..

@chelo I am glad you like this puzzle. I hope there will be enough people solving to get both difficulty and beauty ratings. Peace to you. -Will Power
