Arangues’ example is correct but they forgot to mention that the first line refers to blue and the second to red. But for this puzzle you don’t even need both.

I agree that an example of how the rules work would be helpful since the German version especially is highly confusing.
Understanding the rules probably took me longer than solving the actual puzzle.

I think the last two rules would be more clearly stated as indexing lines on rows/columns 4, 5, and 6 (check ChinStrap great puzzles using that rule).

Rule example:
If R2C5 is X, the digit 2 in column 5 is in the Xth row
If R4C6 is Y, the digit 6 in row 4 is in the Yth column

Please explain the rows/column red/blue rule

I don't understand the rule about the colours, could you please explain?

The "digits in red cells/blue cells" rules could do with an example for beginners as me.

That was faster than the 1 star I did before this xD
And I think I didn't even used the red part.
For people with little exposure, one or two examples for the row/column rule would be nice though.

A lovely easy puzzle, but only after I worked out the meaning of the last two rules.
