Sandwiched Entropy

(Published on 13. October 2022, 16:38 by sujoyku)

For this puzzle I have combined entropy and sandwich clues. (Warning: The sandwich sums concern the digits between 3 and 6.) Please let me know in the comments how you like this puzzle variant. I wish you a happy solve!

- Normal Sudoku rules apply.

- Entropy line: Any set of three consecutive digits on the orange line must contain a low (1, 2 or 3), a medium (4, 5 or 6) and a high digit (7, 8 or 9).

- Sandwich: Clues outside the grid indicate the sum of all digits between 3 and 6 in the respective row or column. For example, the row 123456789 would have the sandwich clue 9 as the sum of 4 and 5.

Here you can solve the puzzle online (you may need to disable the conflict checker because of the "non-standard" sandwich clues):

Solution code: Row 2 followed by Column 7, from left to right resp. from top to bottom (no space or comma, 18 digits in total)

Nice little sandwich/coloring exercise! Thanks for setting it and sharing it with us!

Thank you for your kind comment, RockyRoer! I am glad that you liked the puzzle. Given I had uploaded the puzzle almost two years ago, I would not have thought it gets some more solvers. But maybe it will somehow reach "confirmed rating" territory. :)
Kind regards, sujoyku

I am fairly new to non-standard Sudoku puzzles, but I really enjoyed this puzzle a lot.

** Hey larmoejr, thank you for your comment. I am happy that you gave my puzzle a try and enjoyed it.
As I am fairly new to this site myself, I'm still astonished by the frequency of new great puzzles. If you enjoy variant sudokus, you may have a lot of fun with the puzzles here.
