Slightly Chaotic Circles
(Eingestellt am 21. September 2023, 06:44 Uhr von thoughtbyte)
Chaoskonstruktion: Teilen Sie das Gitter in Regionen, die jeweils aus sechs orthogonal verbundenen Zellen bestehen. Jede Zeile, Spalte und Region enthält jeweils einmal die Ziffern 1–6.
Kreise zählen: Eine eingekreiste Ziffer gibt genau an, wie viele Kreise diese Ziffer enthalten. Kreise können jede einzelne Ziffer von 1 bis 6 enthalten. Kreise außerhalb des Rasters zählen zur Gesamtsumme ihrer Ziffern.
X-Summen: Ein Hinweis außerhalb des Rasters ist die Summe der ersten X Zellen in der entsprechenden Zeile/Spalte, wobei X die Ziffer in der Zelle ist, die dem Hinweis am nächsten liegt. Alle in der Summe enthaltenen Zellen befinden sich in derselben Region und die X+1. Zelle befindet sich in einer anderen Region.

Great introduction to chaos construction. Having solved many xsums puzzles helped a lot. 1.5 stars for me. Thx.

Very nice puzzle. I really enjoyed the solve. I'm amazed that this is rated a one star puzzle, it just looks too intimidating for that.

I don't believe for a second that this is 1/5 for difficulty.

I really enjoyed the break-in and the vast majority of the solve! I just found it a tiny bit unsatisfying, like Snaques, that the grid was completely filled with digits for me when I still had three regions left to define.
I would love to see a 9x9 version of this. The interaction of the circle and x-sum logic at the start was really pretty!

Very nice. First you need to think a bit about the ruleset, after that it fills in ever so smoothly!

Very nice, it's an art to make such an easy chaos construction puzzle!

Well, that was some kind of wizardry. The initial grid looked so intimidating that all the way through I felt a sense of disbelief that I was solving it so smoothly and that I must be about to find I made a mistake, and then suddenly it was done. Very enjoyable, and I'd love to see what thoughtbyte can do with this ruleset in a larger grid!
-- thanks for the feedback and im glad you enjoyed it! the 9x9 is in the works and it is devious, since X-sums clue circles may contain 2 digits... some wild deductions so far :D

This was lovely, and I didn't actually find it too easy. Took me over half an hour. Some very fun moments in there - was cool how the x-sums narrowed down the options for eachother, and how limited the options for the circles became.

Quite enjoyed this one, but didn't finish half of the regions when the puzzle was already solved. Left a bit of a weird feeling.
-- ah yes, it needs a better solution code. glad you enjoyed it.

What a gorgeous puzzle! Such a satisfying solution path, and approachable, too. Well done.

It took quite some time to get my head around the ruleset but once that clicked, the puzzle was very enjoyable.

I love chaos construction if it‘s not too hard. So, this was perfect.
Very nice combination of rules. At first I thought this must be more than 1 star difficulty, but after a little pencil marking it got quite easy.
Thanks for this pretty puzzle!

It took a smidge of time to wrap my head around the start of this one, but once I did it was an absolute delight all the way through, and the logic follows quite nicely!
- thank you for the feedback. I'm delighted you enjoyed the puzzle, especially since it's your first logged solve here. Congrats!
