Janus (Multi Constraint)

(Published on 29. August 2026, 18:30 by tallcat)

No matter how much I try to consciously escape it, I always come back to symmetry and almost symmetrical designs when I set. Because of this push-pull of sorts, Janus felt like an appropriate title for this puzzle - returning to an old favorite of between lines. Happy solving!

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Between Lines: Cells along lines between two filled circles must have values between those in the circles. Digits may repeat on lines if allowed by other rules.

Arrows: Digits on an arrow must sum to the digit in the circle.

Kropki pairs: Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Digits separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio. Not all dots are necessarily given.

Even/Odd: The grey square indicates an even digit. The grey circle indicates an odd digit.





Can be played online at F-puzzles or Sudokupad

Solution code: Row 4, left to right (9 digits, no spaces).

Great puzzle tallcat!
It felt like I had to use a multitude of different ideas and techniques throughout the solve. The "small" clues did a surprising amount of heavy lifting.
