Tumbling (Thermo)

(Published on 19. December 2023, 23:19 by tallcat)

It's been a while since I've set a puzzles with a single and well-established constraint. I've also only set one pure thermo puzzle before and that was over 18 months ago - which is surprising as I enjoy some of the logic you can wring out of them. This puzzle was also an effort to get away from overly symmetrical puzzles! Happy solving!

Normal Sudoku rules apply

Thermo: Digits along thermometers must increase from the bulb end.




Can be found at f-puzzles or Sudokupad

Solution code: Row 5 (left to right) and column 5 (top to bottom). 18 digits, no spaces

This is how you construct a puzzle: a seemingly intractable abstraction yields and softens, yields and softens, and so on, until all of a sudden, you’re in! Perfection.
