Normal sudoku rules apply.
KROPKI CHAINS
Points separated by a white dot have adjacent values. Points separated by a black dot are in a 2:1 ratio. There is a hidden point between each pairs of dots, whose value need not be written into the grid.
Example: 8-bb-2 is valid via the chain 8-b-(4)-b-2
Example: 3-bw-7 is valid via the chain 3-b-(6)-w-7
Solution code: Row 9

I kept breaking the break-in until I finally had a lightbulb go off. This was absolutely amazing and completely enjoyable. Thanks for setting and sharing!

Like the concept. R5C5 threw me for a loop, but then I saw the trick. Great puzzle.

@mayermeight Try to rigorously disprove each possible digit, and you'll find the one that works!

Hi! I am new to these rules, I have been thinking about it quite a long time, and I am positive that r5c5 could only be a 3, but the given 3 does not allow it. Can you give me a hint about where I am misinterpreting the rules?
