Cryptoku 1

(Published on 6. January 2026, 21:41 by Eespi)

Normal sudoku rules apply.

The two grey rectangles contain the same three digits in the same order.

There are four cryptic crossword answers in the grid, one on each colored line (O, G, P, and B).

The start of each line is the caged cell at one of its ends. The crossword answer is written on the line using each letter's rank in the alphabet, where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, etc. For letters whose rank has two digits, the ones digit follows the tens digit on the line.

Example: the letters of the word "Fun" have ranks 6, 21, and 14, so the word "Fun" would appear on a line as 6 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 4.

Cryptic Crossword Clues:

Orange (line "O"): Empathy vehicles' tangled hoses (5)

Green (line "G"): Able to speak aloud (7)

Pink (line "P"): Monk sets PR outside Brazilian city (5)

Blue (line "B"): Guests under floor - very detailed lower bound (6)
