Gimme Shelter
(Published on 29. November 2024, 23:01 by glum_hippo)
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Fill each row, column, and 3x3 box with the digits 1-9 once each.
Grey circles indicate odd digits, and grey squares indicate evens.
Values outside the grid are skyscraper clues. Imagine each digit X inside the grid as a building of height X. A skyscraper clue gives the count of digits seen from that vantage point, whereby larger buildings obscure the view of shorter ones behind them.
Sudokupad version, no answer check
Solution code: Row 2, left to right, and Column 7 from top to bottom (18 digits total).

The parity clues add an interesting twist to the way you have to approach it. Very nice!

Enjoyed that a lot! The emphasis on parity makes for a really interesting approach to skyscraper logic.
