Getting to Therms with Cycles
(Published on 16. November 2023, 11:37 by Beefy)
Play the puzzle here!
Normal sudoku rules apply.
The pink lines are Cycle Lines. On a Cycle Line, each digit indicates the position of the next, thus joining all digits in one single cycle. For example, 312 is a valid cycle (3 -> 2 -> 1 -> 3 -> 2...) but 213 is not because 3 is left out (2 -> 1 -> 2 -> 1...).
The 1st digit of a Cycle Line is located at its thicker base.
On a thermometer, digits are strictly increasing from the bulb.
Cells separated by a white dot have consecutive digits.
Solution code: Row 6, from left to right:

Fixed an error that rendered the puzzle unsolvable exactly.
