Sudoku Variants Series (323) - Killer Kropki Sudoku

(Published on 2. June 2021, 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.

Killer Kropki Sudoku
Apply classic sudoku rules.
A white dot between two dotted outlined regions indicates that the sums within those regions have a difference of one. A black dot between two such regions indicates that one of the sums is twice the other sum. When there is no dot between two regions, they cannot have sums that differ by one or are double. Digits may not repeat in regions.

Inspiration for this type comes from Willy Wonka.

Solve online in F-Puzzles. Thx to PixelPlucker or Penpa+. Thx to Henry.

Brilliant Richard! So pleased to see such a masterful construction using this ruleset (and even more pleased to have been able to solve it!). Challenging and exciting throughout

The entry was long and intricate (lack of a loopback would do that, of course), and the puzzle remained hard till the end.
