Hidden Clones Sudoku 6
(Eingestellt am 29. April 2020, 04:00 Uhr von Eggr)
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
The grey cells form a 'cloned' region, which appears 7 times within the grid (1 Given + 6 Hidden).
Each of the clones is an exact copy of the others; same digits, same configuration, rotations and reflections are not allowed.
Additional Restriction: In this puzzle all 7 clones must touch each other (orthogonal or diagonal) to form a single connected group

Hints:
Don't forget the extra restriction: "All 7 clones must touch each other (orthogonal or diagonal) to form a single connected group"
If you're struggling to get started, highlight the text below to reveal a general strategy recommendation:
[Hint] Pick one cell of the clone to be your anchor, then color the entire grid based on where the hidden anchor(s) can and cannot be. A few rows/columns around the perimeter of the grid can always be eliminated based on the shape of the clone. Additionally, basic sudoku rules prevent two anchors from ever being in the same row, column or box. As you solve, continue eliminating any anchor placements that would force contradictions, and eventually it will reveal where the hidden clones must be. [/Hint]
