Link: F-puzzles link to Every Which Way But Loose Sudoku
Variants: Arrows, Kropki pairs, Minimum Cell

1) Normal Sudoku

  • Place the digits 1 through 9 once each in every row, column, and box.

2) Arrows

  • 2.1) The digits along an arrow sum to the digit(s) in the circle.
  • 2.2) Two circles have 3 digits.
    • 2.2.1) These 3 digits form 6 two-digit numbers.
    • 2.2.2) Each two digit number has a corresponding arrow. The number is to be read in the direction of the arrow. For example, if R4C4 is a 5 and R3C3 is a 2, the digits on the arrow that starts in R2C2 and continues in Box 1 will sum to 52. The arrow that starts on R5C5 will sum to 25.

3) Kropki pairs

  • 3.1) Two adjacent cells that share a white dot have digits that are consecutive.
    • Not all white dots have been given.
  • 3.2) Two adjacent cells that share a black dot have digits that are in a ratio of 1 to 2.
    • Not all black dots have been given.

4) Minimum Cell

  • The digit in the grey cell with the four inward facing arrows must be smaller than the 4 orthogonally adjacent cells.

    Solution code: Please enter the 18 digits from Column 4 followed by Row 7.

    You are very kind. I wish f-puzzle let me make the same puzzle as is in the description picture. The colored lines were my compromise to try and avoid confusion. ~ZH
