a spikier conundrum
(Eingestellt Gestern, 09:10 Uhr von aqjhs)
Sotehr came up with this concept and at first it seemed impossible to materialize but it ended up working in a surprising way. Hope you like it.
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
-
Full Rank (reverse):
- The digits on columns and rows, read in both directions, make a total of 36 numbers of nine digits each.
- Clues outside the grid show the rank for the indicated row/column among those 36 numbers, where the highest is 1 and the lowest is 36.
- A 🤔 emoji is a clue and represents any integer number.
-
Periodic Sums:
- Clues outside the grid also indicate the sum of the first and every Nth value after it in the row or column, where N is the digit in the first cell seen from the clue.

Lösungscode: Number in rank 22.

Very tricky! Big step up from the 5x5 full-ranks that have been popping up. Got really stuck near the end, had to guess and check for errors dozens of steps deep. Not really sure if I was missing something unique to full-rank.

The « reverse » concept got me at my first attempt. Great puzzle. Thanks.
