Framed (Between Lines Quad)

(Published on 7. December 2024, 18:50 by tallcat)

Outside of arrows, Between Lines have probably become one of my other favorite constraints - which is strange given they can be a pain to work with. Here, I wanted to see what I could do by combining them with quads, and I was quite pleased with the final result. Happy solving!

Normal sudoku rules apply

Between Lines: Cells along lines between two filled circles must have values between those in the circles.

Quadruples: Digits in white circles must be present at least once in the cells the clue touches.

Solution code: Row 4, left to right. 9 digits, no spaces.

My first solve on LMD this year was Rosetta (tallcat), and this was my 1000th solve. Yes, I really like tallcat's puzzles! This one was really elegant.

One of the most elegant uses of overlapping constraints I have seen in a while. Truly masterclass construction.
