Herniated Ring-2
(Published on 17. October 2025, 18:08 by brtmns)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
A black dot separates two digits such that the ratio of the two digits is on the dot.
A white dot separates two digits that are consecutive.
Digits appearing in large circles (on grid intersections) must appear in the surrounding four cells.
Digits cannot repeat within a cage, and the digits within a cage must add up to the total given in that cage’s upper-left corner.

interesting how a basic SET puzzle can still be level 1. the explanation is that the p-ring isn't needed at all

I love how the ring, cages and quadruples worked together - first time I've seen something like that. Not hard once it 'clicked' in my head, but a nice little bit of logic that should be used more!
