Ich fühlte mich inspiriert, nachdem ich wundervolle "alien" Japanese Sums von KNT und ibag gelöst hatte, also beschloss ich, einen Build Your Own Killer mit Alien-Basen zu erstellen. Im Geiste meines anderen BYOK habe ich versucht, es konsequent herausfordernd, aber niemals unfair zu machen. Ich wünsche Ihnen viel Spaß beim Lösen!

An absolute MUST and highlight for anyone who loves aliens as much as the challenge!

Thanks. I loved how the geometry kept helping, as I didn't fancy thinking about the bases more than I had to!

This is an absolutely fabulous puzzle! It is always an achievement to solve an @Agent puzzle but this one was particularly special to crack. So smooth once you get the hang of it. Marvellously set! Thanks for sharing this yet another masterpiece.

@Silverstep: I think if you check your 8 cage and rewind to that point it should be good.

@polar Thanks a lot. That was a real brainfart by me yesterday. Turns out 8 in any base is just 8.

Amazing puzzle! Difficult, but very rewarding. Loved its rhythm, and the way it flows back and forward between geometry and arithmetics. Thank you, Agent!

It's not stated, but I assume that the digits in the grid (1-9) are all treated as base-10 while being summed up, no matter what base their killer cage sum is?
-- Yes, e.g. a 21-cage written by the base 5 alien can be made up of 236.
