The Secret Meeting In Italy (German Whisper + XV)

(Published on 17. May 2023, 09:01 by Playmaker6174)

The following puzzle is a random puzzle I made based on a combo of 'standard' variants, specifically German Whisper line + XV pair. I made this one while drafting some ideas for upcoming big puzzles in the near future, maybe this isn't one of my best but I certainly found it very fun at the end. :)

The puzzle isn't trivial but there're quite plenty of interesting deductions in here that I think many would find it cool to see. I hope you enjoy!


Rules:

- Normal Sudoku rules apply: every row, column and 3x3 box contains digits from 1 to 9 each once.

- Along a green line, two adjacent cells contain digits with the difference of at least 5.

- Two cells connected by a V contain digits that sum to 5, two cells connected by an X contain digits that sum to 10. Not all Vs and Xes are given.

Puzzle:

Good luck and have fun solving!

Solution code: The main diagonal that goes from R1C1 to R9C9 diagonally, 9 digits long

very nice, but also fairly difficult: Took nearly 5 hours to get the grid fully colored, but it was worth it. Entering all digits in last 15 seconds was so satisfying. Thanks for great puzzle
