2CT Appreciation (German Whispers thermometer sudoku)
(Eingestellt am 1. Januar 2024, 23:34 Uhr von Qodec)
Because 2-cell thermometer clues have a particular reputation of being used as final puzzle disambiguators, I felt they deserved a puzzle in which they're used in a more meaningful way.
- Sudoku: Each row, column, and region indicated by thick borders in the grid must contain the digits 1 to 9 once each.
- Thermometers: Grey paths indicate thermometers. Digits on thermometers increase moving away from the bulb.
- German whispers: Adjacent digits along a green line have a difference of 5 or more.
You can play this puzzle online using Sudokupad: http://tinyurl.com/5yvx2w7f
Lösungscode: Rows 2 and 8. I.e. the 9 digits in row 2 from left to right, followed by the 9 digits in row 8 from left to right, for example: 123456789123456789

Very interesting idea for the start, and an immensely satisfying flow later on, which I didn't totally expect at all x)
