The Color is Saffron 2
(Published on 30. December 2025, 20:38 by Bharat Kumar gour )
Normal sudoku rules apply. Adjacent digits on a saffron line must have a difference of at least 3. Additionally, digits two cell apart on a saffron line must have a difference of at least 5. For e.g. a 4 cell long saffron line filled “ABCD”, A and B, B and C, C and D will have a difference of at least 3 and the A and C, B and D will have a difference of at least 5. Grey lines are ten sum lines. Digits on each grey line sum to ten. Two digits on a black dot means one digit is double the other.

Took me a bit to understand the "gimmick" of the saffron lines, specifically the only allowed central digits and the one resulting edge digit. Looking at saffron 1, I see how the first puzzle would help teach it a bit easier in box 9.
3* challenge after knowing the trick. Fun puzzle!
