Tadpoles (thermo with white dots)

(Published on 5. January 2024, 17:20 by Fool on Hill)

Puzzle rules

Normal Sudoku rules apply.

Along a grey thermometer digits increase with the lowest digit in the bulb and the highest digit in the tip

Cells separated by a white dot contain consecutive digits. Not all dots are given. (Partial Kropki)

This was created by playing around with an idea I saw used in a couple of Sandra and Nala fog puzzles. This is clearly harder than I first thought, though there is a clean way through - it requires some thought.

Here is the SudokuPad Link where you can play the puzzle: Tadpoles

Solution code: Positive diagonal R9C1 to R1C9
