Foog
(Published on 2. September 2024, 22:22 by Oddlyeven)
Rules: Normal Sudoku rules apply. Put the digits 1 to 9 once each into every row, column and 3x3 box.
Fog: The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells.
Kropki Dots: Digits on a white dot are consecutive. Digits on a black dot are in a 1 to 2 ratio. Not all dots are given.
Kroopki Doots: Doots are straight lines between sets of cells. A white doot separates two sets of cells whose respective sums are consecutive. A black doot separates two sets of cells whose respective sums are in a 1:2 ratio. Not all doots are given. For example, R1C1 + R1C2 + R1C3 is double or half R2C1 + R2C2 + R2C3 because of the black doot between them.

A fantastic puzzle. The solution becomes obvious when you realize what the maximum length of the black line can be. Just when you think you're about to get stuck in a place with no way out, it turns out that the disappearing fog reveals something that allows you to break through. Fantastic fun with even and odd sequences. Whenever I solve a puzzle like this, I wonder how the author is able to come up with something like this. Many thanks for the fantastic construction, solving which gave me a lot of fun.

What a nice puzzle. It's interesting how powerful those longer black doots can be.
The break in was at the same time very simple and satistfying.
