Scattered Packages
(Eingestellt am 6. Januar 2025, 20:22 Uhr von fjam)
This puzzle uses the unique ordered sums constraint; a twist on killer cages where rankings are given instead of actual totals. Enjoy!
This was the first of two puzzles I constructed for Flinty in the CTC Discord 2024 Secret Santa. In response to a request for maths based puzzles at the easier end of the difficulty range, I thought this constraint would work well, using simple arithmetic restrictions and killer combination logic.
The second Secret Santa puzzle can be found here: Dented Box

- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- In cages, digits must not repeat and sum to a total. All totals are ranked in ascending order and these rankings are displayed in the top left corner of each cage.

Nice math puzzle. Got it without taking notes but it was challenging... and great fun.

Although the Packages may have been Scattered,
It's an excellent puzzle, and that's what mattered!
You were a great, no longer secret, Secret Santa.
Thank you. :)
