Five Dominos

(Published on 4. October 2022, 04:00 by Mad-Tyas)

In the collection of now 16 Entropy sudokus that I have published here, it has been shown that the constraint does not require very much information in the grid to produce a unique solution. However, I was surprised that it is possible with so little.

Rules:

Sudoku: Fill every row, column and 3x3 box with the digits 1-9.

Killer: In cages marked with a black dashed line digits must not repeat and have to add up to the total given in the top left corner of the cage.

Entropy: The low digits (1, 2, 3), middle digits (4, 5, 6) and high digits (7, 8, 9) are defined as three different groups. In the finished grid each 2x2 box has to contain at least one digit of each group.

Have fun solving!

Global entropy is so powerful, thanks for finding this minimal setting!

It is quite surprising that this minimalistic setting works. Nice puzzle. :)
