Kropki camels are TonberryJava’s creation. Follow him on twitch!.
Dutch Flat Mates are Flinty‘s creation. He has a whole series about them that you should definitely check out.
Rules:
Sudoku: Place the digits 1-9 once in every row, column and marked 3x3 box.
Dutch Flat Mates: Every 5 in the grid must have a 1 directly above it or a 9 directly below it. It may have both, but it doesn't need both.
A camel’s move in fairy chess is like an elongated knight move: it can jump three squares horizontally and one square vertically or three squares vertically and one square horizontally.
Grey Kropki Camels: Any cell a camel’s move away from a camel cell has to contain a digit that is either consecutive or in a 2:1 ratio with the digit in the camel cell.
There are exactly seven camel cells in the grid. Two of them are shown (marked with 🐫), the others are hidden. All the hidden camels are in odd-numbered boxes and contain the digit of the box that they live in.
That’s it, happy solving!
Solution code: Row 9, left to right (9 digits without spaces)
