DNA Zipper
(Eingestellt am 2. August 2023, 00:00 Uhr von heliopolix )
This puzzle was my entry in a speed setting competition. Conceived, set, and tested in 90 minutes. While ultimately not a finalist there, I decided it was good enough to share. I hope you enjoy solving it as much as I enjoyed setting it.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply (place digits 1-9 once each in every row, column, and 3x3 box).
Normal killer cage rules apply (digits in a cage sum to the total in the top left cell, and digits don't repeat in a cage).
Normal kropki pairs rules apply (digits separated by a white dot are consecutive, and digits separated by a black dot are in a 2:1 ratio). Not all dots are necessarily given.
Comments are always welcome. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the puzzle. Have fun!

This was the second puzzle I've completed here. I've tried a few others and haven't been able to get past the break-in. A great beginner puzzle. I did need to use a killer combination cheat sheet otherwise I'd be doing several dozen calculations for an hour XD
Thanks for making this one.

I've just made the leap from regular sudokus and killer sudokus from the regular iPhone-apps, to variant sudokus like this. A very fun puzzle!

I just got the DNA test back for my pet frog. Turns out he's part Irish, part Mexican, and a tad Pole.
Thanks for the fun puzzle. Really enjoyed it.

Thank you for this nice puzzle, heliopolix! The solve was great fun. I have set a puzzle with a similar break-in myself. Therefore I got it rather quickly. The placement of the kropki dots in the middle boxes is a beautiful idea. Cool setting!
