8 Legged Friend
So this is actually the first puzzle I ever set, around 2 and a half years ago now. It took me a long time to share my creations to the wider sudoku community, but I thought it would be fun to post this one and compare how my puzzles have developed to now! I know there's nothing too mind blowing in this one, but I think it still holds up :)
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Digits along a spider's leg sum to the digit on the spiders body. (normal arrow rules)
- Digits may not repeat along the spider's web. (Positive or negative diagonal)
- Neighbouring digits along a green caterpillar have a difference of at least 5. (Normal german whisper rules)
- Purple worms must contain a set of non-repeating consecutive digits, in any order. (Normal renban rules)

Solution code: Row 8, just to stick to the theme even more

Always blows my mind when people share their first puzzles and they are the most intricate things from the get go.
Very fun puzzle and it has aged really well.

Thanks for the lovely puzzle! I actually found it to be on the easier end of 2* but it had some excellent deductions and the variants interacted in really interesting ways. Once I got the break-in it was a very smooth solve.

spiders and 'pillers and worms, oh boy.
this puzzle definitely qualifies for the "obviously handcrafted" label, so top marks in my book.
difficulty is on the upper end of 2, so beginners will struggle.

Thank you for sharing this cool puzzle, Laake! The solve has been a pleasure. At first, I thought the puzzle would be easier than it actually was, but especially the Spider's web did work some wonders.

I guess you could say this puzzle is really really Good Charlotte's web ^_^
