Fog Counting
(Published on 17. April 2025, 15:16 by pagedo)
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Every digit in a circle has to be assigned to one of the surrounding cells.
Cells connected by a pink Renban line form a set of consecutive digits, in any order, without repeats.
Every pair of consecutive digits along a red Parity line must contain an even and an odd digit.
Digits on a light grey palindrome line read the same forwards and backwards.
Numbers in a Maximum grey cell with greater than symbols are greater than all orthogonally adjacent cells.
Cells joined by a V sum to 5.
Digits joined by a white dot are consecutive. Cells joined by a black dot, one digit is double the other.
Not all Vs or dots are given.
Parts of the board is covered in fog. Placing the correct digits in the revealed cells will lift more fog and reveal other cells.

Got into a 2 digit Mexican standoff, didn’t understand the last symbol. Had to test both solutions to get it right

Oddly, by the time I revealed the Maximum clue, It was already higher than all adjacent pencil marks. I probably had missed something and solved "out of order", but interestingly, I didn't need it.
Incredible puzzle, perfect for my current ability level. Thank you!

Can't tell if the initial lines are supposed to be pink or red honestly

I guess I need a new monitor. Couldn't tell if the initial lines were red or pink. They looked sort of peachy. (Especially when compared to the red text in the "Account" box at the left of the LMG screen.) When the fog cleared and the pink lines came into view, it was obvious.

Thanks to superdog, TheDrunkBaby and fornerobj for pointing out the missing maximum rule.
Also thank you to everyone for your kind comments.

I loved this puzzle! Some people may be unfamiliar with the last clue, and it is not mentioned in the rules. Might be good to update that one

@sof, dont forget about rule related to odd/even parity. Fog opens the grid nicely then
on 17. April 2025, 15:29 by sof
It seems like the fog is broken or maybe I dont understand something :(
