Right or Wrogn
(Published on 12. April 2023, 01:01 by Scojo)
This puzzle was originally set in December 2022 for the Cracking the Cryptic Discord's monthly prompt of "Polar Opposites."
Rules:- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- This puzzle can be solved in either Right or Wrogn mode.
- In Right mode: clues outside the grid are either skyscraper or x-sum clues to be determined by the solver. Skyscraper clues show how many cells would be visible from the clue if each cell were a skyscraper the height of the digit it contains. X-sum clues give the sum of the first x digits seen from the clue, where x is the first digit seen. Digits along thermometers increase from bulb to tip. Digits on an arrow sum to the digit in that arrow's circle. Digits in a killer cage sum to the total in the top left corner of the cage. Digits separated by a black kropki dot have a 1:2 ratio. Digits separated by a white kropki dot are consecutive. Not all dots are given.
- In Wrogn mode: clues outside the grid can be neither valid skyscraper nor x-sum clues. Digits along thermometers must decrease from bulb to tip. Digits on an arrow, including the circle, sum to the digit in that arrow's point. Digits in a killer cage must not sum to the total in the top left corner. The roles of kropki dots are reversed; digits on white dots have a 1:2 ratio and digits on black dots are consecutive. Not all dots are given.
Solution code: Row 5 of Right followed by Row 5 of Wrogn (18 digits)

Really enjoyed these puzzles. I found the wrogn easier than the right, but had to focus hard to focus hard with the reverse rules.

Neither puzzle gave me any trouble. The tough part is keeping your mind right on the kropki dots on the wrogn puzzle
