Mini Snack Break
(Eingestellt am 15. April 2025, 01:53 Uhr von PhoenixAki)
- Mean Mini: This puzzle uses 4 of the digits from 1-9. Which 4 digits are used must be deduced by the solver. Place those 4 digits once each in every row, column, and 2x2 box.
- Killer Cages: Digits in dotted-line cages must sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage.
- German Whispers: Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least 5.
- Consecutive Pairs: Digits separated by a white dot must be consecutive.
To increase accessibility to my puzzles, I include hints in my puzzle posts (see below) and also post solution videos which guide you through the hints on my YouTube channel. If you'd like to solve this in your own video, go ahead! But ideally, let me know here or via Discord (same username) if you do ^.^
Hint 1: You can immediately rule out 1 digit from appearing in this puzzle due to the combination of cages in row 1 and the digits that could be in use to make those cages work.
Hint 2: The white dot forces at least 1 of the row 1 cages to be made of consecutive digits. Pencilmarking will tell you which cage that is.
Hint 3: From there, you can work out what the other row 1 cage must be based on the 10 cage.
Lösungscode: row 1 from left to right (4 digits)

when i enter 3 on raw4 col4, there were confetti coming out, was very confusing, but finally solved it, it's interesting!

PhoenixAki: That's a joke reference to YouTube channel Cracking the Cryptic involving 3's being placed in the corners of the grid. It happens automatically in SudokuPad when a puzzle has a 3 in the corner.

The clues instantly hive the numbers away if you know how to look at them. About 20 seconds of thinking and another 20 seconds in sudokupad

First time I comment here at LMG.
This was an amazing snack-puzzle. Thought it would be more difficult than it was, as soon as you find how to think about it, it was fantastik puzzle.
Thank you

Absolutely gorgeous. The break-in seems opaque at first glance but immediately crumbles under any scrutiny. Truly an interesting GAS. Thanks!
