This puzzle is part of a series I'm making, exploring the odd anti-knight / even anti-bishop mechanic. Other puzzles in the series can be found here:
- First Practice (easy puzzle to try out the anti-bishop/anti-knight rule)
- Deranged scribbles or modern art?
- Knight and Bishops, dancing around dots
- Anti-Knight and Anti-Bishop Killer
- Bishops eat their sandwiches at 5:29
- Minimalist art or more deranged scribbles?
- Directionless Knights and Bishops
- Scribbled art in deranged colors
Puzzle rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Odd anti-knight: Cells separated by a knight’s move in chess cannot have the same odd digit.
- Even anti-bishop: Cells separated by a bishop’s move in chess cannot have the same even digit.
- Kropki dots: Cells joined by a black dot must have a ratio of 1:2.
- Renban lines: Every line contains a set of consecutive digits in any order, without repeats.
- Sandwich sums: Clues outside the grid give the sum of all digits between the 1 and the 9 in that row or column.
Solution code: Row 5 (9 digits, no spaces)

For me, this was the best and the hardest puzzle in the series so far! I really love the constraints and hope you keep them coming!
