Mad Arrows (Mad Fold-In)

(Published on 13. December 2024, 10:35 by gdc)

After We're All Mad Here turned out to be quite mind-bending, I now wanted to use the Fold-In rule again with a simpler ruleset and solve-path. Thanks to the testers and for feedback on the new frame-layout. Hope you enjoy!

  • Normal sudoku rules apply.
  • Mad Fold-In: The dashed red lines are folded onto each other so that column 1, 2, 8 and 9 form a 4x9 grid. Arrows must also sum correctly in the folded grid.
  • Arrows: Digits along an arrow sum to the digit in the attached circle.

Oh I hope this catches on. Feels like a very lateral ruleset with very different logic

Very fun! Eagerly awaiting a toroidal chaos construction mad fold-in sudoku ;).

That was very enjoyable and certainly more approachable that the other one.
