Counterpoint (Renban Arrow)

(Published on 16. July 2022, 08:30 by tallcat)

And so we come to the 50th puzzle that I have published on LMD. When I first tried my hand at setting sudokus, I would not have anticipated reaching such a milestone. To mark the occasion, I returned to my first 'love' of arrows - and mixing it with renbans which are a more recent favorite. Happy solving!

Normal Sudoku rules apply

Arrow Sudoku: Digits on arrows must sum to the digit in the circle.

Renban: Pink lines must contain a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order.




Can be found at f-puzzles or CTC

Solution code: Column 2 (Top to bottom) followed by row 7 (left to right)

Tallcat puzzle. Need I say more?

(I mean, I will anyway; this was an outstanding use of both constraints and I thoroughly enjoyed it.)

Happy 50th tallcat !
And that was a lovely puzzle to celebrate this, and typical of yours with lots of nice interations between the two constraints, and a kind of "recursive" logic in the same areas to get to the right restrictions.
