The Digits Are Paid Actors
(Eingestellt am 5. November 2022, 21:40 Uhr von Lizzy01)
Well, maybe not paid, but they definitely are actors!
The rule may seem long and complicated at first glance, but if you read carefully it shouldn't be too hard to understand and remember. Feel free to ask if you need any further explanation.
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
(Values of) digits along arrows sum up to the (value of the) digit in the circle.
Actor cells:
One cell in each row, column and box is an actor.
Each digit from 1-9 appears as an actor exactly once.
Each actor is playing the role of an other digit (they can't act as themselves).
If an actor is on an arrow, its role is considered as its value.
Every actor is playing a different role.
An actor cell playing the role of N can't be orthogonally adjacent to a real N.
Have fun!
Try it here.
Lösungscode: column 7, column 9 (just use the real sudoku digit for the actors)

Wow, such a clever and brilliant puzzle! It really challenged me but I found my way through.

Interesting and challenging concept. The actors allowed more variants for the sums on the arrows. To figure all possibilities out was quite hard- it deserves 5 stars!
--Thanks for trying!

Thanks for recommending me to try it, it's really a masterpiece with this new, mind-bending and fun constraint. The difficulty is balanced throughout, without being brutal (but I overcomplicated the ending).
Thanks for setting this !

Fantastic puzzle! I botched it a couple times, but I'm glad I was finally able to work my way through. Keeping track of the actors was a mind bender.

Very nice and also really challenging from start to finish! :^) (I did not particularly enjoy figuring out this paranoid solution code though ...)
--Thanks! Sorry ;)
