Primal Chaos Sudoku
(Published on 18. September 2022, 11:20 by floppseynova)
Rules:
-The digits 1-9 appear once each within the center digits of the boxes.
-In boxes with a composite number (1,4,6,8,9) in the center (Hereafter CN boxes), normal sudoku rules apply.
-In boxes with a prime number (2,3,5,7) in the center (Hereafter PN boxes), normal sudoku rules do not apply, but must not prevent CN boxes from working properly.
-White dots in a CN box signify a difference of 1. In a PN box, they signify a difference of either 2,3,5, or 7.
-Black dots always signify a ratio of 2:1 between digits.
-Gray dots are where both a black and white dot apply.
-All dots within boxes are given, none of the dots between boxes are given.
-Digits that lie on an arrow sum to the digit in the circle.
-All prime digits are orthogonally connected.
-PN boxes have a prime number of prime digits not equal to the center value (ie the center digit is 2 therefore there are 3,5, or 7 prime digits in the box).
-The sum of digits contained within a PN box is a prime.
-The number of boxes containing all the prime digits is prime.
