Strange Pattern
(Published on 21. December 2025, 03:13 by Chaotix37)
So I haven't set a puzzle for a long time.
Strange PatternNormal Sudoku Rules Apply. Each row, column, and 3x3 box, must have 1-9 without repetition.
Diagonal: Digits along the blue lines cannot repeat the same digit
Non-consecutive: Orthogonaly adjacent cells cannot be consecutive.
Solution code: Negative Diagonal(Left to right, top to bottom) (Starting from Row 1 column 1, row 2 column 2, up to row 9 column 9)(9 Digits)

Was confused about wether adjacent meant kings move adjacent or orthogonally adjacent. Assumed wrong but after noticing i couldnt fill in numbers anywhere corrected and it was a pretty easy one! Fun pattern

9:40 for me. Indeed a strange pattern. After break-in everything came together easily.

Took me a good 20 minutes of crazy pencil marks before I found where to make progress. Great puzzle though!

The adjacency negative constraint made the ending very fast and the beginning painfully slow. Very nice puzzle but definitely 2 stars for me.

Delightful solve! Love the symmetry!

This took me 68 minutes. Most of that was spent staring at it before reading the rules and noticing the adjacency constraint. D’oh.
