XV Kropki Sudoku

(Published on 16. February 2021, 10:19 by Cane_Puzzles)

Standard Sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1-9 into each cell of the grid. Rows, columns or boldly outlined 3x3 boxes may have not repeated digits in them.

Kropki and XV Sudoku rules apply: The digits in cells separated by...

- a white dot are consecutive.
- a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio.
- an "X" sum to 10.
- a "V" sum to 5.

There are no negative constraints, so two cells without any symbol between them could be in one of the four situations listed above.

You can try this puzzle on F-Puzzles here. I hope you will enjoy this puzzle. Feedback and comments are always welcome.

I am not a native German speaker. Therefore comments and corrections about the German text are highly appreciated.

Solution code: Row 4 followed by Column 4 (18 digits with no spaces)

Hi Cane, you told us in your ATOMIC SUDOKU, that you are a pupil, so you are a very young author. My congratulations to this brilliant puzzle ! :-))

Nice puzzle. I was lucky to see the break-in quickly (if that's what you intended). Thanks!

German ruleset should go: "Es gelten die Standardregeln für Sudoku: Platzieren Sie die Ziffern 1-9 in den Zellen des Gitters. Dabei dürfen sich jeweils in den Zeilen, Spalten und fett umrandeten 3x3-Feldern keine Ziffern wiederholen.

Es gelten die Regeln von Kropki- und XV-Sudoku: Die Ziffern in Zellen, die durch ...

- einen weißen Punkt verbunden sind, sind aufeinanderfolgend.
- einen schwarzen Punkt verbunden sind, stehen im Verhältnis 1:2.
- ein "X" verbunden sind, haben eine Summe von 10.
- ein "V" verbunden sind, haben eine Summe von 5.

Es gibt keine negativen Einschränkungen, d.h. über Zellen, die durch keines der oben genannten Symbole verbunden sind, lassen sich keine Aussagen machen."
