(Published on 28. July 2020, 03:10 by Volatility)

Normal sudoku rules apply. Additionally, each digit must be in an integer ratio with at least one of its orthogonally adjacent neighbours. (That is, each digit is either a multiple or a factor of an orthogonally adjacent digit)

This one was tough going from start to finish, and the logic is quite fascinating. Maybe someone will create a Factor Whisper sudoku - i. e. not all cells, but only neighbors along a line need to satisfy this constraint.

@SudokuExplorer Thanks for the clarification :)
@Volatility Thanks for the puzzle. Got stuck in a few places but got there eventually!

Edited rules for clarity

Thanks @SudokuExplorer! I'll take a look at your puzzle

@Greg Yes, every cell has a neighbour by which one of the numbers is a factor of the other. In other words, every cell has a neighbour which is either a factor or a multiple of it.

Nice puzzle with the same constraint I used for one of my puzzles! :-)
If you like this divisibility constraint, you might enjoy this one (https://logic-masters.de/Raetselportal/Raetsel/zeigen.php?id=0003XL)

Slightly confused by "Integer ratio". Surely every pair of numbers form an integer ratio?
Should I be interpreting it as every cell has a neighbour by which one of the numbers is a factor of the other...?
