Knight Shift

(Published on 28. July 2026, 05:08 by elle3113)

My first puzzle! Any and all feedback is appreciated :)

Normal Sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1–9 exactly once in every row, column, and 3×3 box.

German Whisper:
Adjacent digits on a green line must differ by at least 5.

Antiknight:
Any two cells separated by a knight's move in chess cannot contain the same digit.

Renban:
Each pink line contains a set of consecutive digits in any order.

Palindrome:
Gray lines are palindromes; they read the same in both directions.

XV:
Digits separated by an X sum to 10, while digits separated by a V sum to 5. Not all Xs and Vs are necessarily given.

Killer Cage:
Digits in a Killer Cage sum to the small clue in the upper-left corner of the cage.

The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells, possibly revealing more clues.

Great debut, thanks for sharing!

There was one tricky deduction which took some time that made it a 2-star for me, the rest flowed very smoothly. Great fun!

Nice starter! My only complaint is that it became too easy too soon. So most of the time: marking-filling-marking-filling, but for a first one very nice.

Very nice puzzle - the hardest part was coloring over gray cells :-)
