Octoquadri Pack (volume 2)

(Published on 28. December 2024, 23:59 by The Book Wyrm)


This is the second part of a collection of puzzles I have created using the octoquadri ruleset invented by Analytical Ninja. I set a bunch of these puzzles across several months because I found the ruleset interesting, and once I had enough I collected them into a pack. I'm now uploading the pack here, split into 4 parts roughly according to difficulty, each containing 4 puzzles.
You can download the full pack here.

Here are the links:

Radar

Courtyard

Slanted

Feeling a Little Purple

Rules: (With the puzzles each variant appears in)

  • Octoquadri: (All puzzles)

  • Kropki pairs: (Slanted)
    Digits seperated by a white dot must be consecutive. Digits seperated by a black dot must be in a 1:2 ratio.
  • Inequality: (Courtyard, Slanted)
    The inequality sign points to the smaller digit.
  • German Whisper: (Radar)
    Adjacent digits on a green line differ by at least 5.
  • Renban: (All puzzles)
    Digits along a purple line form a set of non-repeating consecutive digits.

    Digits along a thermo increase from the bulb end.

What a treat! These are like canapés, each of them delicious in its own way. Together, 16 of them make a very satisfying meal. Thank you very much!

Adjusted image to only include the puzzles in this part of the pack, added rules to the LMD page, and added links to the other parts of the pack.

Killer, Renban, Thermo, Kropki, Inequality all in a 4x4 grid. Do you want to go for the record with the most variants in a small grid?
