- Normal irregular 6x6 sudoku rules apply, i.e. each row, column and region has to contain the digits from 1 to 6.
- XV: Digits joined by a V sum to 5. Digits joined by X sum to 10. All X and V are given. NEGATIVE CONSTRAINT: Digits that are NOT joined by a V or an X do not sum to either 5 or 10.
- Palindrome: The digits on the gray line form a palindrome, i.e. the string reads the same forwards and backwards.
- Kropki dots: Digits joined by white dot are consecutive. (Not all dots are given.)
Here you can solve the puzzle online:
Solution code: Row 5 followed by Column 4, from left to right resp. from top to bottom (no space or comma, 12 digits in total)

Danke für deinen Kommentar, Rollo! Es freut mich, dass Dir mein Rätsel gefallen hat.
Und sich mal zu verrennen, ist keine Schande. Ich glaube, das kennt jeder, der gerne Rätsel löst.
Viele Grüße,

changed "negative constraint" to bold type

Very enjoyable little puzzle!
Personally I would make the expression "NEGATIVE CONSTRAINT" in bold so it stands out more.
In case you need it, you just have to write:
<b>NEGATIVE CONSTRAINT</b>

Thank you for your comment, Perladel! I am glad that you enjoyed the puzzle. Also thanks for the advice to put "negative constraint" in bold. I will change this.
Kind regards, sujoyku
