Directionless Knights and Bishops

(Published on 21. September 2024, 14:53 by bboom)

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:

  1. First Practice (easy puzzle to try out the anti-bishop/anti-knight rule)
  2. Deranged scribbles or modern art?
  3. Knight and Bishops, dancing around dots
  4. Anti-Knight and Anti-Bishop Killer
  5. Bishops eat their sandwiches at 5:29
  6. Minimalist art or more deranged scribbles?
  7. Directionless Knights and Bishops
  8. 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.
  • Arrows: Numbers along an arrow sum to the number shown in the circled cells.

I really like this ruleset, just have to be really careful. So easy to make mistakes, proabably one of the reasons for such low rating, people get angry at themselves and need to vent :) IMHO people should take a look at mirror and find culprit there…
