The Whispering Mirror

(Published on 3. September 2024, 09:23 by ark29)

Normal Sudoku rules apply [Place the digits 1-9 in every row, column, and 3x3 box]

Green lines are German whispers [Adjacent digits on a green German whisper line are at least 5 apart]

In addition, every whisper is a palindrome [Digits along the palindrome are the same from either direction]

Vs connect digits that sum to 5. Not all Vs are given

Digits in the dotted cage sum to the number in the top left corner

The whisper palindromes are huge fun. Thank you for setting and sharing, ark29!

Thanks @mozart40 - turns out I had messed up a whispers line! Successfully completed now :)

A satisfying puzzle. I used blue for 5-9, and orange for 1-4. Going against conventional wisdom.

A great way to become familiar with palindromes

I may be missing something, but if 6's and 7's are reversed, there are apparently two different solutions. Fun puzzle, though.

Edit: My fault. I had missed that the three-cell whisper spanning boxes 8 and 9 was broken in one of the two "solutions"

As I've just finished the puzzle I can confirm, box 8 in normal reading order.

BTW: Nice puzzle

Fun puzzle - but I can't seem to enter the solution code! Is it box 8 in normal reading order or is it something else?

Beautiful flow, I really liked that there was no real 'break-in' and thus the solve was challenging & interesting from start until the end.
