Six-pack Linked Sudokus #5
(Published on 24. March 2021, 20:34 by Genomico)
Another six-pack linked sudokus puzzle, consisting of six different variants of 6x6 sudokus, which are all linked together by circles.
A circle must contain one digit from 1 to 5 and indicates the difference of the two adjacent cells.
Clues outside the grid (not in circles) belong to the specific sudoku variant.
Normal 6x6 sudoku rules apply to all sudokus, so every row, column and region must contain the digits 1 to 6. The different variants in the puzzle:
A circle must contain one digit from 1 to 5 and indicates the difference of the two adjacent cells.
Clues outside the grid (not in circles) belong to the specific sudoku variant.
Normal 6x6 sudoku rules apply to all sudokus, so every row, column and region must contain the digits 1 to 6. The different variants in the puzzle:
- 1) Skyscraper: rules.
- 2) Search 6: Every arrow is pointing at number 6 in the respective row or column. The number in the arrow is the distance (with respect to the number of cells) from the arrow to the 6.
- 3) 1-is-a-liar: From each pair of digits outside the grid, only one must be placed in one of the first two cells in the respective row or column.
- 4) Next-to-6 sum: Clues outside the grid indicate the sum of all direct neighbours of the digit 6 in the respective row or column.
- 5) Increasing: On every black line the digits are ascending from one end to the other end.
- 6) Little killer: rules. Digits may repeat on the diagonal.
Solution code: The row with the 18 circled digits in the middle of the grid, followed by the 1st row of the skyscraper sudoku and the 4th row of the 1-is-a-liar sudoku. 30 digits in total.

In the 'Next-to-6-sum', is it all 4 orthogonally connected cells (assuming it's not on an edge), or just the 2 on either side in the row or column?
Reply: It's just the 2 on either side in that row/column.
