Mea Culpa (Flat Mates) [6x6]
(Published on 17. March 2026, 17:41 by ViKingPrime)
PUZZLE:
RULES:
Place the digits 1-6 once each into every row, column and box.
The white dots separate two consecutive digits; the black dots separate digits where one is double the other.
Digits in the Killer cage must sum to the total in the top left corner.
Australian Flat Mate rules apply! meaning every 5 in the grid must have either a '6' directly above it or a '⇂' directly below it (it may have both but it doesn't need both).
I recently released a puzzle pack as a crossover with the Dutch Flat Mates series and the communal response from that side of the sudoku world was "it was hard in the not fun kind of way". Consider this my apology.
Have fun (and please forgive me)!
Solution code: The digits in Row 1, left to right.

Took far longer than I care to say, I also blame Flinty.
