Psuedocross, a sudoku in crossword form

(Eingestellt am 18. August 2024, 11:45 Uhr von Basil)

This is a sudoku-crossword-hybrid. Actually it’s more of a psuedo-crossword (but no words, just numbers). Anyway it’s designed to be solved on its own without the help of any search engine. Just some basic math knowledge is required. All calculations necessary can be done by hand, even in your head, but you may prefer to use a simple calculator or some equivalent.

Because of sudoku, you need much less clues than in a standard crossword puzzle. To obtain the right balance most clues are mostly useless, but all of them are true. So if ((almost) all) clues seem useless, impossible to solve frustrating and/or ununderstandable, DON’T PANiC! They’re supposed to be that way.

You’ re not expected to know any multi-digit primes, Knowing what a double squared lucky even squarefree semiprime is, won’t help you solve the puzzle. Just focus on the important part. It’s an even number. Mostly it’s just a bit of logic thinking and some sudoku. Don’t worry, just have fun and be happy.

rules

Place the digits 1-9 once in every irregular region.
Digits do not repeat in rows and columns.


    horizontal

  1. consecutive sequence
  2. odd number
  3. prime number
  4. does not contain consecutive digits
  5. prime number
  6. double of v.4
  7. divisible by 3
  8. The first and the third digit have the same remainder when divided by 3. The other digits have different remainders.
  9. From the third digit on, each digit is the sum of the two preceding digits.
  10. The third digit is exactly between the 2nd and the 4th.
  11. prime number
  12. Take any 4-digit-answer from this puzzle. Order the digits in ascending and descending order. Calculate the difference. Repeat the process with the result. When the number stops changing you’ll have your answer.
  13. divisible by 3
  14. Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything
  15. lucky number
  16. even squarefree semiprime (see v.10)
  17. square number, anagram of v.0
  18. odd number
  19. Two of the digits almost add up to the third one.

    vertical

  1. square number, anagram of h.28

Wow, this took me 74 minutes, using a notepad to track the possible options, but was well worth the effort. A veritable journey through mathematics!
