Sudoku Variants Series (280) - Odd Pentominos Sudoku

(Published on 5. August 2020, 00:00 by Richard)

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

Odd Pentominos Sudoku
Apply classic sudoku rules.
In seven of the 3x3 blocks a different pentomino of the given set has to be placed that covers all odd digits in that block. One pentomino remains unused. Pentominos may be rotated and/or reflected.

Inspiration for this type comes from Greg Rodgers Powers .

Solve online in Penpa+ (thanks Nick Smirnov!)

Solution code: Row 7, followed by column 3.

@Rollo: I already missed your solutions! Of course the ones you missed are solvable by logic, but turned out all to be on the hard side. Contact me in the forum in case you are interested in a tiny hint. Otherwise: please keep trying! :-)

Thank you Richard for this variant, and for not being so hard. I solved all SVS up to 276, but could not solve the last three until now.

@Voyager: yes, I noticed. I simply use the ignore button so I don't see all the ones that are not interesting any more. Works calming on the brain!
