There's no "V" in "Six Knights"
(Published on 5. April 2024, 16:41 by Gauner)
Cells seperated by a knight's move in chess may not contain the same digit.
All neighbouring cells, that sum to 10 are marked with an "X".
All neighbouring cells, that sum to 5 are marked with a "V".
All neighbouring cells connected with a white dot are consecutive.
Solution code: Row 3 and 4

Rules are clear enough. I used colouring to solve. Thx for setting a nice puzzle.

I just solved that but had forgotten about the knights move rule. How did that happen?

Agree with qbert72 and benji, clear enough no problem with the rules !

The puzzle is nice, the rules are clear (I think the wording is intentional and also fine).

Nice puzzle! I disagree with the comments regarding the rules. Their wording, though unconventional, is 100% correct.

It's a nice Puzzle, but the last rule needs clarification or improvement.

nice puzzle, however i do agree with the others that some more clarity could be better.

I agree with the comments, the rules aren't clear enough. You might want to phrase it like this, for example: "Cells connected by an X sum to 10, cells connected by a V sum to 5, all Xs and Vs are given. Cells connected by a white dot are consecutive. (Not all white dots are necessarily given.)"

I think there’s some nuance in the wording of the rules that makes it make sense. “All neighboring cells *that sum to 10* are marked with an X” vs. “All neighboring cells *connected with a white dot* are consecutive.” But, might just need to add a little clarity.
Nice puzzle!

Agreed with Christovaneeden

Nice puzzle.
@9Rookienumbers. The fist 2 kropki dot rules is supposed to imply a negative constraint.
I do agree with you on the last rule. Negative constraint cannot apply for the last rule. Would make the puzzle unsolvable

Nice easy puzzle. I would suggest removing the word "all" from the beginning of the last three rules: it seems to imply a negative constraint, which isn't there.
