Knight Takes Bishop
(Published on 3. May 2024, 11:17 by juggler)
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
A digit on a chess piece is the sum of all the digits in cells the chess piece could move to in a single move. Bishops and kings can only move to cells in the same 3x3 box, but knights can jump into other boxes.
Solution code: Row 1

Really enjoyed this puzzle! I was suprised I didn't get more stuck, but the puzzle was set well with a smooth flow. Thanks!

I enjoyed this puzzle but even after a lot of googling, it wasn’t clear what a ‘bishops move’ was. I was only able to work it out by using trial and error and checking the solution to see which digits went where. I was familiar with the other two from other puzzles but it would be good if all three could be explained in the rules for those not familiar. Thanks for an otherwise enjoyable puzzle! :)

love unfamiliar rulesets! took me nearly two hours, ha. the interactions between the different pieces were super interesting to figure out

hmm, am I correct in interpretting this as: the sum of all cells it can move to with any single move?
otherwise, the king in box 1 would be the sum of 6 cells, so...
EDIT:
yeah ok, that worked fine ;) just keep in mind it's sum of all cells within any one move.

I would like to clearify the rule: "... is the sum of _all_ the digits ..."

juggler: that's correct
