Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Palindromes: digits on a grey palindrome line read the same forwards and backwards. The lines do not bend, diverge or cross each other.
Parity Indexers: if a palindrome line has a length that is even, the digits at its ends will index the length of the line. If a palindrome line has a length that is uneven, the central digit will index the length of the line.
Fog: the grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog. No guessing is required.
You can only solve the puzzle online (due to the fog mechanic).
Love, Brigitte
Lösungscode: Row 9 from left to right (9 digits in total)

Hi! This was an enjoyable puzzle.
I want to suggest two changes to the wording of the English ruleset, as it was a bit confusing.
Firstly, I think you should replace the word "uneven" with the word "odd". This is because "uneven" implies that one end of the palindrome is longer than the other, which is not the case in this puzzle.
Secondly, instead of writing "The lines do not bend", you should say "All lines are straight". I say this because "bend" implies a curve but I think you meant to tell us that there are no corners.
Thanks!

Hi Xocolatl, of course! The idea is that the length of the lines (how many cells it crosses) is written (or indexed) in the line somewhere. Where you write the length of the line depends on whether the line is even or uneven in length. If it's uneven, you write it in the central cell of the line. If it's even, you write it at the ends. For example, if a line is 8 cells long (even), you write an 8 at the two ends of the line. If it's 7 cells long (uneven), you write a 7 in the cell that is exactly in the middle of the line.

Could you please clarify the indexer rule? I don't understand it.
