Sliced Chaos Production
(Published on 27. November 2022, 12:37 by RockyRoer)
Here's a little chaos construction for you all. I enjoy using products as they have a limited number of options. If you enjoy products, here's a few other puzzles of mine featuring them:
- Product Killer Sandwiches
- Line of Sight Chaos Construction (7x7)
- Line of Sight Chaos Construction (9x9)
- Multiplied Cages
- Antiknight Products
This one shouldn't be nearly as mathsy as it might first appear. Good luck!
The Rules
- [Chaos Construction] Normal irregular sudoku rules apply - but the regions must be determined by the solver.
- [Product Slices] Numbers outside the grid represent the product of the sums of the digits in the first two slices of regions seen from the direction of the clue.
- For example, for a row with 5|21647|38|9, a 100 clue could be given on the left side, or a 99 clue given on the right. Note, the 5 and 38 slices could be in the same region -- but they would count as separate slices.
Try the example on CTC-App

Try it on F-Puzzles, CTC-App, or Paper and Pencil.
Solution code: Row 1 followed by Column 8

Minimalist puzzle with really fun narrow solution path. Resisted to the very end. Worth the effort. Thank you.
