Waiting in Line (Lockout Lines)

(Published on 28. August 2021, 23:46 by purpl)

Just an interesting little preview of what Kropki can do to the Lockout Line variant, also hey I can actually make an easy puzzle ;)

Rules:

Normal Sudoku rules apply.

Kropki dots: Cells separated by a black kropki dot have a ratio of 1:2. Cells separated by a white kropki dot have a difference of 1. Not all dots are given.

Lockout Lines: Endpoints (Diamonds) must differ by at least 4. Digits on the line must be different than the endpoint values and must not fall between them. Digits can repeat if allowed by other rules.

Lockout Lines need its own tag on LMD - such a nice innovation!
(happy to have the tag already - many thanks to Hausigel)

Lockout Lines still mess with me, but this was a pleasant puzzle. Good interactions
