Jaxy Fog of War Sudoku I

(Published on 11. December 2024, 22:40 by Jaxy)

A not super hard Fog of War Sudoku which should still be interesting. Consensus seems to be that it is about 1* difficulty.

Rules
  • Standard Sudoku rules apply (1-9 in every row, column, and 3x3 box).
  • Fog of War: The grid is covered in fog. Placing correct digits will reveal the surrounding cells in the gird. No guessing is required.
  • Killer Cages: The sum of digits in a dotted cage must match the small number in its top-left corner.
  • German Whispers: Green lines require adjacent cells on the line to differ by at least 5.
  • Region sums: The sum of digits on a blue line are equal in each 3x3 box the blue line is in. (These sums may be different for different lines)
  • Thermometers: Numbers to strictly increase from bulb to tip.
  • Arrows: Digits on an arrow sum to the value at the circle at the end
  • Digits in cells separated by a black dot are in a 2:1 ratio. Digits in cells separated by a white dot are consecutive.

Solution code: Final column (top to bottom, no spaces)

Nice puzzle. 29 minutes for me. 2 star imo - I think its a little harder than GAS level

Definitely 1-star. I'm not good enough to do a 2-star, and certainly not in under 15 minutes, which was my time on this puzzle. Very enjoyable. Thank you. Fog of War is definitely my favorite variant.

Very nice! 20 minutes for me. I found the break in very challenging, but you are handsomely rewarded for figuring it out. Just right for an avid amateur puzzler! Thank you for the puzzle.

I very much enjoyed this one. I would rate this a 1* given it took five minutes flat for me, but that doesn't take away from it being a very nicely set puzzle. Thank you for sharing.

Great puzzle. Fun cluing and good fog setting. Certainly some fun deductions to be made. I'd posit somewhere in the 2-3* range. Thank you!
