American Gothic by Grant Wood

(Published on 31. January 2023, 05:00 by Will Power)

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Numbers on green lines are at least 5 apart from their neighbors on the line. Numbers on the dark yellow line (woman's hair) are all powers of 2 (1,2,4,8). Numbers may repeat on the yellow and green lines, if other rules allow. Numbers on all other lines are each a set of non-repeating, consecutive numbers, in any order. Numbers in cages sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage. Numbers with a V between them sum to 5. Numbers with a black dot between them are in a ratio of 2:1. Not all possible V and black dots are given. The blue and pink circles have no effect on the puzzle.

Really nice smooth puzzle. Like others I didn't pay attention and assumed that the grey line continued through R6C7-8 but no, that was not something I could assume !

Thanks for a great puzzle! I Really enjoyed this one - nice visuals and break-in!

I tried this earlier in the year and made a mess of my attempt. Revisited it today and saw how smooth of a solve it is.

Super nice, once I got the opening figured out, after 20mins plus of staring at colouring and a few pencil marks, it flowed lovely.

@VeTaurus In the above picture it indeed looks like the gray line is peeking out a bit on the left side of the pink line between r2c9+r3c9. But it doesn't really matter because the gray line is valid even with r3c9 included. :)

@asp1310, just use fpuzzles link and edit the thickness yourself.

To me it looks like the grey and the pink line in box 3 overlap at r3c9. If so, I end up with two solution paths.

@Ve Taurus The gray and pink lines share R2C9, but gray does not extend to R3C9. I have completed the puzzle again, from the beginning. The only thing I can think you are seeing is if a certain 1 and 9 can be swapped, but that leads to countless other problems in other places. Please be sure that you have a set of non-repeating consecutive numbers on all lines except the dark yellow one, which only contains 1,2,4 and 8 as possible entries, and the green lines, which are German Whispers lines. -Will Power

While I'm liking these art puzzles, is it possible to not use thick lines? They make it a lot harder to see the background when you use the color tool, since it covers way more of the cell than the normal, thinner line - especially when lines fork/intersect.

I know this specific puzzle isn't as bad with them but I'm just replying to the most recent!
