Clue Line Miracle
(Published on 27. December 2025, 12:08 by 72kchunshuai)
Finally made a puzzle with (almost) pure face!
This puzzle is greatly inspired by Index Fingers (created by marty_sears). I also made another puzzle with similar elements, and I'll be happy if you check this one.
Rules:
- Normal 6x6 Sudoku rules apply: Place digits 1-6 once each in every row, column and 2×3 box.
- Anti-Knight: Cells that are a knight's move apart in chess cannot contain the same digit.
- Clue Lines:
Draw 12 horizontal and 4 vertical clue lines in this grid. Clue lines MAY cross or share cells with each other.
A clue line is a straight line that passes through exactly 3 cells. The three digits ABC along a clue line, reading left-to-right or top-to-bottom, indicate that the cell at row A, column B contains the digit C.
Every clue line is also a parity line. Adjacent digits along a parity line must alternate between even and odd.
3 in the corner: Please place a digit '3' in the top-right corner (r1c6), which must be a starting cell (leftmost or topmost cell) of a clue line.

The difficulty may be around 2.5*, I think.
Also, I'm dying to know whether the original version is human-solvable. So please let me know if you solve this version.
Solution code: Row 6, from left to right, six digits.
