Normal Sudoku rules apply. Fill each row, column, and 3x3 box with the digits 1-9 once each.
-Dutch Whispers Lines: Orange lines in the grid are Dutch Whispers lines. Adjacent digits along the line must have a difference of at least 4.
-Kropki Pairs: Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Digits separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio, meaning one is exactly double the other. Not all dots are necessarily given.

Lovely puzzle and a nice souvenir of SudokuCon 2025! For koba1917 and others who struggled a bit with the line flairs--you really should have seen the original version (-:

nice puzzle though i really dislike the extra flair on the lines as it makes it unnecessarily hard to track where the line goes.

Thanks for your solve and comment. I understand the critique, but this puzzle was set with specific aesthetic purposes that were also important here.
And if you draw these lines in the normal center-of-cell ways, it creates a much different, and potentially interpretable as offensive, "picture" in the puzzle :)
