Sudoku Variants Series (350) - David and Goliath Sudoku

(Published on 8. December 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.

David and Goliath Sudoku
Apply classic sudoku rules.
Each grey marked pair of digits contains exactly one small (1-5) and one large (5-9) digit.

Inspiration for this type comes from WSC2021.

Solve online in F-Puzzles (thanks Steven R!) or in Penpa+ (thanks henrypijames!)

Solution code: Row 1, followed by column 1.

@HaSe: thx for the nice words, although 20 years is a bit too much rounded up. :-)

Sorry for the stupid question, but is 5 considered small, large or both

Thanks Jörg!
Incredible, isn't it?
And I am sure the series will continue for a while because of all the new variations that are brought to the portal in the last year and a half! :-)

I used killer boxes instead of solid rectangles because the former are transparent and allow for better coloring

Thx! It looks wonderful!
