Locked Cages (Killer, Lockout Lines)
(Published on 21. January 2025, 15:41 by Chilly)
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Normal lockout line rules apply. Digits in diamonds directly connected by a lockout line must differ by 4 or more. Digits on a line must be different from those in the diamonds, and must fall outside the range defined by their diamonds. Digits on a line may repeat if allowed by other rules.
- The clues in the upper left corners of cages give the sum of the digits in the corresponding cage.
