Between Neighbors (6x6)
(Published on 20. November 2023, 02:04 by EFlatMinor)
A small puzzle built around a unique global constraint. Enjoy!
See also my 9x9 puzzle based on the same rules: Between Neighbors
- Normal 6x6 Sudoku Rules: Place the digits 1-6 in every Row, Column, and 3x2 Box
- Renban Lines: Digits on a purple Renban line are a set of consecutive digits (in any order)
- Thermometers: Digits along a gray thermometer strictly increase from the bulb to the tip
- Between Neighbors (Global Anti Min/Max): a digit may not be the minimum OR maximum of its orthogonally adjacent neighbors EXCEPT if the digit is a 1 or 6 (i.e. all digits other than 1 and 6 must have at least one lower neighbor and at least one higher neighbor)
Solution code: Row 3 followed by Column 4 (12 digits total)

Very sweet even though i think it deserves a 1 star rating. I normally still struggle with two stars, but this one was really easy. :)

Great use of the constraints, logic was great throughout. Gonna have to Gove the 9x9 a go
