Hi! This puzzle is a sequel to the Excavation of the ancient city puzzle. It uses the same variant of skyscrapers, so if you want to train your intuition, I highly recommend you check it out! I really hope you will enjoy it!


Rules

  • Sudoku: Fill every row, column, and 3x3 box with the digits 1–9 once each.
  • German Whispers (Green): Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least 5.
  • Kropki dots: Digits separated by a black kropki dot must be in 1:2 ratio.
  • Hidden Skyscrapers: Each digit in the grid represents the height of a building. Taller buildings obstruct the view of shorter buildings behind them.
  • Vantage Points: A digit in a cell with a square (located at the start or end of a row or column) counts how many buildings are visible from that direction, including itself.
  • Corner Clues: A clue in a corner cell applies to both its row and column unless an arrow indicates a specific direction.

Example: If R6C9 was 3, a valid row 6 could look like: 245789613 (the visible skyscrapers are: 3, 6, and 9).
