Beauty Mark

Normal sudoku rules apply. Normal black dot rules apply. The two digits on the black dot have a ratio of 2:1. There are no negative constraints of any kind.
Nabner Lines: The thicker golden lines are nabner lines. Digits cannot repeat on a line, and lines cannot contain consecutive digits, regardless of order. For example, if a line has a 3 anywhere on it, 2 and 4 cannot appear on that line.
Region Sum Lines: The thinner blue lines in the grid are Region Sum Lines. The sum of digits on the line is the same within each box.
Have fun, leave a comment if you enjoy the puzzle!
PS: I stream solving sudoku like puzzles three days a week. You can check out the channel, as well as some videos I have made about setting puzzles, at my YouTube channel here.
Lösungscode: Row 3

Loved it! Had to really brute force it because I under-used the secret, but I got there anyway!

100th solve on this puzzle

Cool break-in idea and cute ideas after! I think the difficulty is at most 2.5* tho :)

Nice flow after break in.
I did get stuck at the midpoint for a while as had missed the "can not repeat" part of the nabner rules here - I had recently done Soliloquy, which didn't have/need that restriction.
That was down to my scanning, and not seeing that while the example said that a line with a 3 can't have 2/4 it also can't have another 3

Fun puzzle! This deserves a higher approval rating!

Such a 'weird' opening but after that, the solve became quite smoother with lots of neat interactions between two types of line :)

Zetamath uses Nabner lines to break brains, and we love it.

I found this one a little easier than your other recent nabner puzzles, maybe I got lucky and was able to spot the break-in, or maybe that good nabner logic is starting to sink in :) nice puzzle!

It just flows. Very nice puzzle, I thought it was on the easy side of 4 stars, but great setting. Thanks!
To the issue of the black dot - there are two solutions to the puzzle without the black dot!

Nice puzzle! When you find the break-in, everything else can be solved smoothly!

loving the nabner lines

Smooth and elegant solve, with a well-telegraphed break-in and some wonderful gems of logic throughout. Thanks!

The process in finding out the minimum and maximum was a joy to behold!

I included the black dot rules only at the Sudokupad link. Fixed now!
