K-P-K (Kropki Product Killer)
(Eingestellt am 3. März 2021, 20:05 Uhr von abed hawila)
Rules:
Standard Sudoku Rules apply.
Product killer: Each cage is represented by a total which is the Product of the digits within that cage, except no cage totals are given, Digits cannot repeat within a cage.
Kropki rules do not apply to cells.
Standard Kropki rules apply to cage totals.
This means that cages connected with a white dot have consecutive product totals. For example, two cages consist of 3-9 and 4-7, must be connected by a white dot because their products are 27 and 28.
Cages connected with a black dot have product totals in a 1:2 ratio. For example, two cages consist of 3-9 and 6-9, must be connected by a black dot because their products are 27 and 54.
All possible dots between cages are given. Enjoy!
Lösungscode: Column 7 Row 7 (18 digits, no spaces or commas)

My brain was basically tossed back and forth during the solve, where there were certain moments that I broke the puzzle over and over until I realized that I missed that one tiny option, which rather impacted the solve overall. Lots of enjoyment throughout, but I shouldn't have messed up like that.

Fun variant! I enjoy a little arithmetic mixed in :)

Very nice ruleset, although it caught me off guard a few times (Product, not sum!).

Nice ruleset. Got stuck due to an error while disambiguating the „cage-snake“. Thanks for the hint, Abed. That kept me on track.
