By The Way, Which One's Pink? (Anti-Knight, ESL, Renban)
(Published on 20. July 2025, 18:32 by juddimal)
My second attempt at a puzzle where the solver decides which constraints apply to which lines.
Normal sudoku rules apply.
All lines are Equal Split Lines. One line is a pink Renban, which must be deduced by the solver.
ANTI-KNIGHT: Cells separated by a knights move may not contain the same digit.
RENBAN: Digits along lines must be a non-repeating set of consecutive digits, in any order.
EQUAL SPLIT LINES: Dots split lines into segments with equal sums. In this puzzle, each line has a unique segment sum.

Solution code: Column 1 (9 digits)

Finding the renban was relatively easy but the rest was quite hard. Some interesting interactions between the constraints. Thanks!

Hey GDC, in this version, digits are allowed to repeat on lines, even in the same segment.

Can digits repeat on lines? For regular ESLs, they can't but I don't see it mentioned in the rules.
