Between The Mines
(Published on 30. November 2022, 19:37 by Florian Wortmann)
My first Sudoku Pencil Puzzle Hybrid, with an estimated difficulty of 2.5 stars. Hope you enjoy :-)
Normal Sudoku rules.
Between Lines
Digits on a line must be strictly between the digits in both connected circles.
Yin Yang
Shade some cells such that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected and all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected. No 2x2 area may be fully shaded or fully unshaded.
Minesweeper
The circles act as "minesweeper" clues. Cells containing a circle are always unshaded, and their value is the number of shaded cells in the surrounding 3x3 area (i.e. the up to eight cells that touch the circle either orthogonally or diagonally).

Solution code: The digits in all shaded cells in row 4 and column 4

This was the first puzzle I've solved on LMDE, some time later I have improved my time a lot. Still a great puzzle, thanks!

My first Yin Yang solve! I was looking for something just like this to dip my toes in the Yin Yang waters, and it was a very enjoyable ride with a great flow.
Thank you so much for taking your time to set this!

So it's a debut for both of us ;-) I'm glad you were able to solve it and found it enjoyable.

You don't really need to finish the ying yang to complete the sudoku, you just need it to submit.

You're right, from a certain point sudoku and yin yang finish independently. Thanks for your solve :-)
