Gentle XV
(Published on 14. March 2026, 17:24 by Plok)
This is my first XV puzzle.
You don't need the negative constraint to solve the puzzle.
Play on Sudokupad
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits in cells separated by an X sum to 10. Digits in cells separated by a V sum to 5.
Digits in cells separeted by a white dot are consecutive.
There is a negative constraint on X's and V's (so all X's and V's are given) but not necessary to solve the puzzle.
I like to hear what is good and where I can improve
Solution code: Middle 3 numbers of 8th row

I wanted to solve it without taking advantage of the negative constraint, but then I remembered that I *love* negative constraints (and I need to be up in 8 hours).
Very nice puzzle.
