One one, four one, one to four
(Published on 30. April 2025, 11:07 by alhobj)
Note: This puzzle has four solutions, you need to select a starting digit to solve it
Selection: Choose either R1C1 or R4C1. Place 1, 2, 3 or 4 in that cell.
Normal 4x4 sudoku rules apply: Each row, column and 2x2 box must contain the digits 1 to 4.Black kropki dots: Digits separated by a black kropki dot have a 1:2 ratio (ie one is double the other).
White kropki dots: Digits separated by a white kropki dot are consecutive.
Skyscrapers: Digits outside the grid indicate the number of digits “seen” from that vantage point with the higher numbers blocking lower numbers.
CTC Link: Click the image above.Difficulty selection:
Select R1C1 and fill it with 1 or 2 for a very very easy puzzle.
Select R1C1 and fill it with 3 or 4 for a very easy puzzle.
Select R4C1 and fill it with 2, 3 or 4 for a very easy puzzle
Select R4C1 and fill it with 1 for an easy puzzle.
Or see if you can solve it all eight different ways. Enjoy!

Rated low due to the absolute joke of a solution code that literally requires no solving effort to do

Fix the solution code so you have to actually solve it and you’ll have a higher rated puzzle.

Rating should be higher. It's a good set of snacks I enjoyed them all

Was the problem that you used R1C4 instead of R4C1 as a starting point? I fixed the text now.

In any 4x4 Sudoku, the sum of the digits in a row is always the same…

I know. Last time I posted I got some comments on how people did not like having to solve more than one puzzle to get the solution code, so this time I made it so you do not have to solve a single puzzle.
