Caged Line Series #1 - Still Just a Line In a Cage
(Published on 10. February 2023, 21:09 by Mikemerin)
Part of the Caged Lines Series
To my knowledge this is a new ruleset, but please let me know if someone had this idea already. I'm enjoying setting these, I will try making more in the future.
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Within each individual cage, digits cannot repeat and there is one line that connects all it’s cells orthogonally (path is to be determined by the solver). Numbers along that line follow a rule based on the cage’s color:
Green: German whispers - differ by at least 5
Orange: entropy - alternate by low (123) medium (456) and high (789)
Purple: renban - consecutive in any order
Black: thermometer - increase from one end to another

Solve in Sudokupad (includes solution) or f-puzzles

Just to confirm, are digits able to repeat within a cage or no?

Nope, all cages contain unique values so they can't repeat. I'll make the instructions clearer. -MM
