The original concept for this puzzle was a vague idea of wanting to force a specific bit of knowledge about German whisper lines, and it wound up becoming my first path puzzle, and my first puzzle that I + other testers estimate to be 3/5 star difficulty. This took a few nights of banging my head against the wall to get it to work right, but I'm quite happy with the result. Big thanks to both TVDK and sujoyku for helping with testing and some development of the idea.

Rules:
  • Normal sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1-9 in each row, column, and 3x3 box without repetition.
  • Dynamic Fog: The grid is partially covered in grey fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog, at minimum under that cell and sometimes in other parts of the grid. No guessing is required.
  • Whisper Path: Draw a path through the grid which starts and ends with the cells with stars (R1C1 and R9C8). The path acts as a German whisper line, in which adjacent digits must have a difference of at least 5. Cells with green circles are given as part of the path. The path may only move orthogonally and can not touch itself, even diagonally.
  • Killer Cages: Digits in dotted-line cages must sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage. Digits may not repeat within a cage.
  • Kropki Pairs: Digits separated by a black dot must have one digit be double the other (a 2:1 ratio). Digits separated by a white dot must be consecutive.
