Kill Between The Lines
(Eingestellt am 29. September 2020, 02:39 Uhr von Djmelee3000)
Rules:
•Normal sudoku rules apply.
•Digits in dotted cages sum to the number in the top-left of cages, without repeats.
•The ends of the cages act as circles of a between line, where the numbers in the middle must be between the value of the ends.
Link without between lines
Link with between lines
Without between lines:
With between lines:
Here's an example of one possible arrangement, where the 2 and 8 act as the ends, the 3,7 are both between those values and they all add to 20.
Lösungscode: Rows 5 and 9.

Much harder than I expected it to be when I first saw it! And a fun solve.

@Djmelee3000 I 100% approve of the name and definitely got your meaning when I read it.
Now if you ask me what movie this reminds me of I would have to say: F4rgo.

The name is supposed to be a play on “Read Between The Lines” and just sounded good lol.

The name of the puzzle is defined as the limitation of Killer between the lines Sudoku. It might be better to name it Killer between the cages Sudoku.

@Noggin and Strosahl
Yes, thanks Strosahl for clarifying. The example shows one possible arrangement for the 20 cage, so I'll update that.

@Noggin If the ends are 2 and 8, then no, you couldn't have 1 or 9 in the middle. You also couldn't have a 5, because it would need another 5 to make a total of 20 (with 2,5, and 8). You could have 3,7 or 4,6 in the middle though. And you could have 1 & 9 as the ends as well.

Just so it's clear to me could I ask that in your example are the numbers 1 and 9 the only ones exempt from being in that cage?
TIA

Yeah I’ve seen Undar Beyond’s puzzles where he made that, but I wanted something new instead. I hope you like it if you try it out!

I haven’t started to do the problems, but you can consider using Killer Cage Sandwich Sudoku. Some authors used this idea to design puzzles before.
