Kropki Placement Sudoku #2
(Eingestellt am 24. November 2020, 10:27 Uhr von udukos)
I apologize in advance for posting another puzzle in such a short span of time. I wanted to create a more approachable puzzle based on this idea. If you enjoy solving this puzzle and are looking for a more challenging puzzle with the same ruleset, you can try my first puzzle with the same idea
here.
Normal sudoku rules apply.
White dots between two cells indicate consecutive digits and black dots between two cells indicate a ratio of 1:2. For some rows and columns, the TOTAL number of white and/or black dots appearing in that row or column have been given. Dots on the border and outside the grid don't count.
You must place dots based on given clues (or the missing dots in case a few have already been given) entirely inside the grid to solve the puzzle.
A pair of orthogonal cells in the grid with 1 and 2 can have either a black or a white dot between them. It is left for the solver to deduce which one will it be. Also, there is no negative constraint in this puzzle, outside the grid or within the grid (i.e. all the possible kropki dots have NOT been given).
I hope the rules are more clear this time.
Here is an example on a 6*6 grid:
Good Luck. Have fun.

This was a lot of fun -- reminded me of my Encaged Kropki puzzles. I'll have to try the harder one now.
