Normal Sudoku rules apply. GERMAN WHISPERS- Numbers on green lines are at least 5 apart from their neighbors on the line. DUTCH WHISPERS- Numbers on red lines are at least 4 apart from their neighbors on the line. No 5's appear on red lines. Numbers may repeat on green and red lines, if other rules allow. RENBAN- Numbers on purple lines are each a set of non-repeating, consecutive numbers, in any order. KILLER CAGES- Numbers in cages sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage. KROPKI PAIRS- Numbers with a white dot between them are consecutive. Not all possible dots are shown.

Dear Bobson, they already do that using concepts like doublers.

Now back to business.
Excellent puzzle.

@Fisherman Thanks for the comment. I also pointed Bobson to 2 puzzles in my archive that play with the same concept of not obeying standard rules. "We Don't Need No Stinkin Boxes" and "Animal Farm Rebels". Peace to you. -Will Power

Another nice puzzle.

One thought I had while reading the directions: What if the directions said that numbers could repeat on a line *even if other rules would prohibit it*? What would solving something like that even look like?

@Bobson Try my puzzle called "We Don't Need No Stinkin Boxes", from 2023, and see how you could apply your question to that puzzle, once you finish. Note that a common part of the rules is different in that puzzle. Also look at my puzzle "Animal Farm Rebels", which has a specific area that sudoku rules do not apply. It's an ANTI-SUDOKU. I give you the results, and you need to basically create the puzzle. As an outside-the-box thinker, I think you would like it. 8-) Peace to you. -Will Power
