X---V*8
(Published on 17. August 2025, 16:10 by NurglesGift)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Orthogonally adjacent cells can not sum to 5 or 10.
Two lines of the same length and same color are connected X lines.
Counting from the bulb, the first cell of each connected X line sum to 10. the second cell of each line sum to 10 etc.
There is a 3x3 magic square somewhere in the grid.
(A magic square is a 3x3 square with the digits 1-9 where all rows, columns and diagonals have the same sum)

Yup - reloaded the solved puzzle, it came up solution checked and yet column 1 doesn't work. A quick visual check of X's, V's and the lines doesn't show an error... I'll put my column 1 as a hidden comment (lol - although I won't be able to see it!). Can you check against yours, please?

Is there a negative restraint on the black dots? (rule listed in sudokupad but not here)
Edit: Got my head out of my ass and managed to solve whitout any black dot rule so I suspect it's just a missprint in the rules :)
