Four Circles (Whisper Loop)
(Published on 20. September 2024, 17:44 by Jolly Rogers)
RULES:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Draw a one-cell-wide loop of orthogonally connected cells, which does not branch or touch itself, not even diagonally.
- Adjacent digits along the loop must differ by at least 5.
- Cells containing a big circle cannot be on the loop and the digit in a big circle indicates how many of the up to 8 surrounding cells are on the loop.
- A digit in a big circle also indicates how many times that digit must appear in big circles.
- Digits joined by a small white dot must be consecutive. Not all possible dots are given.

Hope you enjoy.
