Shifted X-sums
(Published on 7. July 2022, 18:10 by Lizzy01)
This is a rule I came up with, I hope you like it.
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Clues outside the grid are shifted x-sums, which means that starting from the Nth cell (seen from the side of the clue), where N is the first digit in the grid (seen from the side of the clue) there is a sequence of X digits adding up to the clue, where X is the first of those digits (the digit in the Nth cell).
In other words: they're X-sums, but instead of starting at the start of the row/column, the first digit (N) indicates where it starts.
Example: if r8c9 was a 6, then r8c4 would be a 2 and r8c3 would be a 1.
Have fun!
As always, comments and ratings are highly appreciated.
Solution code: column 1, row 7
