Here is my latest puzzle. Debated whether I should label this as a GAS or not, ended up deciding against it, but still definitely a 1-star. I hope you enjoy. As always, feedback is welcomed and encouraged.

  • Normal Sudoku Rules: Fill each row, column, and 3x3 box with the digits 1-9 once each.
  • Black Kropkis: Digits in cells separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio.
  • German Whispers: Along green lines, digits must differ from their neighbors by at least 5.
  • Odd/Even: Digits in gray circles are odd. Digits in gray squares are even.

I agree on the 2 rating: I needed to use all my German whisper tricks for that one, and a newbie would have struggled I think. That said, I *like* using my German whisper tricks so it made me happy. :)

You might mention the symmetry in the instructions if you want to make it a little more approachable.

Good puzzle, but more of a 2* than a 1* (definitely nowhere close to GAS)
