Sudoku Variants Series (180) - Sudokurve

(Published on 9. May 2017, 00:00 by Richard)

For this Sudoku Variants Project I have planned to publish a different Sudoku variant every Tuesday. I will see how long it takes before I am running out of ideas.

Sudokurve
Place the digits from 1 to 9 once in every row, column, outlined area and the nine grey cells. Unlike a normal sudoku, some rows and colums don’t contain nine cells. Grey lines indicate which partial rows and columns belong together to form complete rows and columns.

Inspiration for this puzzle comes from Fred.

Solve online in Penpa+ (thx Krokant!)

Solution code: Row 4.

Very interesting variant. Kind of easy *and* difficult at the same time. :)

@Richard: I FINALLY solved it, after a whopping TWO numbers of unsuccessful attempts. My scanning in this puzzle was so inefficient. I deduced cells couldn't contain certain values because I kept not following the lines properly. Dear LORD this was a challenge! <_<;

@Circleconstant314: Exactly six digits in your solution code are wrong. Apart from the 2 and 9 that are already in the grid, you only have the 1 at the correct spot.
New try?

Hi Richard, I'm afraid the link in this puzzle is broken, maybe after the changes to the puzzle portal? What it is supposed to show?

Die Schwierigkeit dieses Rätsel entsteht fast ausschließlich aus der Unübersichtlichkeit der zusammengehörenden Zeilen- und Spaltenteile. Die Logik dahinter erhält von mir nur zwei Sterne, aber konzentrieren muss man sich sehr.

Aber auch leichte Rätsel machen Spaß. Vielen Dank Richard

Wohl eine verspätete Eiersuche ;)

@Marcmees: I don't know. I have written in the forum that this problem occured. I assume the webmaster is looking at it. :-)

@Richard. How come I can't see the new sudoku in the list of unsolved puzzles, neither in the list unsolved sudoku. Got your newest one from the latest comments?

Jedenfalls ein sehr schoenes Raetsel, auch wenn es noch versteckt ist. ;-))
