There's a special treat for St. Nicholas Day! A 6×6 Sudoku puzzle that combines all the rules you've learned so far!
SudokuPad
Rules:
- Normal 6×6 Sudoku rules apply.
- Welcome to the elf workshop! Connect the elves with the same-coloured gifts using orthogonally moving lines. These lines must not overlap or cross thick walls. The colour indicates how the line works.
- Green - arrow: The numbers on the line, including the gift, add up to the elf's number.
- Red - Thermometer: The numbers increase strictly along the line, starting from the elf.
- Pink - Renban line: The pink line (including the gift and elf) is a Renban line, which means it contains a set of adjacent numbers in any order.
- Yellow - Nabner line: Any two digits on the yellow line are not adjacent or equal!
- A black dot joins digits, where one is double the other, and the inequality sign points to the smaller digit.
Have fun solving the puzzles and enjoy a busy St. Nicholas Day!
Solution code: Row 1 (6 digits):

The star on the given digit confused me for a minute; thinking it *must* mean something. I ended up just ignoring it but I do wish the rules specified it didn't mean anything cause it made me need to reread it multiple times thinking I missed a rule.
