Lilypad Series #5 - Follow the Leaper
(Published on 14. February 2023, 23:32 by Mikemerin)
Part of the Lilypad Series
My first time using arrows in a puzzle, I got the idea when playing around with doubling up numbers next to lilypads. In this puzzle it's equally important to think about what digits cells can be as what they can't be
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Digits along arrows must sum to the number in the circle, which is also a Lilypad.
Leapfrog: if a cell is next to (in any direction) a lilypad digit "N", it jumps across the lilypad by N cells and any cell it lands on must also differ by N, e.g. in this puzzle: in R3, if C3 is a 6, since it is next to C4's lilypad digit "2" it hops 2 cells to land in C5 and can be either a 4 or 8.
In the example below: if R3C1 is 4, since R3C2 (lilypad) is a 3, R3C4 can be either a 1 or a 7.
