Green Woodpecker
(Published on 26. March 2024, 22:58 by marty_sears)
It's not very often I set something very easy using standard constraints, so I thought I'd give it a go...
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Adjacent digits on a green line have a difference of at least 5.
- Adjacent digits on a red line have different parity (one is odd, the other is even.)
- The blue line is divided by a box border into two segments with the same sum.
- The black dot separates two digits with a 1:2 ratio (one is double the other.)
- A digit on a yellow circle is odd.

This is not the puzzle I would've expected from Marty but I loved it all the more for it; sometimes you just need to take some German Whisper lines and draw a derpy bird face in the grid and I'm absolutely here for it.

the picture is cute ^-^
I do feel like the puzzle is a bit crowded, with many rulesets to keep in mind. Still, it was fun to solve :)

Lovely little puzzle! Even for a 1 star there's some true MMM's!

Lovely puzzle! Generally I avoid puzzles with pretty pictures drawn with lines, since I assume the art was prioritized over the logic. But some of the solve steps in this one are just as pretty as the woodpecker.

A very cute puzzle! Lovely presentation and very approachable, though not entirely trivial if you overlook the obvious questions! Thank you for a very cheerful puzzle! :)
