(Published on 1. April 2024, 16:28 by andreatetta)
Hello, this is the first puzzle I ever created. Any comment or suggestion on how to improve it is appreciated :).
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
KROPKI PAIRS: Numbers with a white dot between them are consecutive.
KILLER CAGES: Numbers in cages sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage.
BETWEEN LINE: Digits on gray lines are in between the digits in the two circles at its endpoints.
EVEN/ODD: Digits in a grey square are even. Digits in grey circles are odd.
DIAGONAL: Digits may not repeat the indicated diagonal.NOTE THAT ONE IN BETWEEN LINES PASSES FROM R3C3 TO R4C4 AND THE OTHER FROM R6C6 TO R7C7.
Solution code: Row 2 (9 digits)

This was very enjoyable.
I can absolutely see the break in as 2* and after that it was pretty easy,

nice and easy ...
but clearly shows the signature of a "handcrafted" puzzle. one DOES need to be familiar with the "between lines" variant

I would also rate this as a higher 1*, lower 2*. Enjoyable! Thank you for sharing!

This was a nice puzzle, but much easier than 3*. I would rate it 1*.

Are there between lines hidden under the diagonal going from r2c2 to r5c5 and r5c5 to r8c8?
Ans: Yes for example the circles on r2c2 and r5c5 are connected via r3c2 r3c3 r4c4 r5c4. I'll make it more clear in the rules. Also regarding the difficulty I agree, but i really wasn't sure. I'll adjust it to 2 star since i think the break-in is harder than 1 star.
