I wanted to make a loop puzzle that is a bit more challenging than the german whispers loops I made before and I think this one turned out really nice.
Still with the counting circles which I also love and they just work so well together.
Thank you for the comments and please don't forget to rate the puzzle.
Hello.
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Draw a single 1-cell-wide loop (orthogonally connected) around the grid.
The loop does not branch and does not touch itself, not even diagonally.
Digits along the loop act as a Dutch Whisper line — adjacent digits on the loop must differ by at least 4.
The given line in box 5 is also a Dutch Whisper line (difference ≥ 4).
A digit in a circle indicates how many times that digit appears in circles in the grid.
It also indicates how many of the up to eight surrounding cells are on the loop.
Circles are never on the loop.
The single white dot connects two pairs of diagonally adjacent cells, each of which contains digits that are consecutive.
Have fun.
Lösungscode: Row 9, first 6 digits.
