thanks to Evelli for the inspiration.......Now we have a 4x4 sudoku which follows standard sudoku rules.Thermometer sudoku rules also apply--which is digits must increase from the bulb to the tip.And the thermo is orthogonal and squiggly--it is S-shaped tetromino(rotations and reflexes allowed)and orthogonally connected only the digit 3 on the thermo is friendly,which means it matches its row column or box number.Whats more,the digit 3 on thermo is friendly in two ways.--Can you solve the sudoku puzzle that I`m depicting?
Solution code: Row 1 and 2

@nearestneighbour : unique because 3 is friendly "only" in two ways !! Not clear at all i agree

Maybe there is a missing period before the word 'only'.
This puzzle is cool and friendly enough to solve **entirely by imagination** :D

Very confusing, it took me a while to see why this sudoku has only 1 solution. If that fact was clearer it would be an amazing new type of sudoku. Kinda like a "construct your own sudoku" type of puzzle.
