Stalemate/Checkmate Combo - Puzzle 1: Stalemate
(Eingestellt am 15. Juli 2020, 21:04 Uhr von HalfBakedLunatic)
Stalemate / Checkmate puzzles are meant to be solved as a pair.
Rules:
* Normal Sudoku rules apply
* Kings are 1, Bishops are 2, Knights are 3
* No two Kings can be a “Kings Move” apart
* No King can be a “Knight’s Move” from any Knight
* No King can be on the same diagonal as a Bishop, unless a Knight is blocking the path
In this Puzzle Number 1, the King in the center box (Box 5) is in a “Stalemate” situation – meaning the King is not in Check, but it cannot move to any of the 8 positions surrounding it because it would be “in check” in any of those cells (by Chess rules, not by Sudoku rules).
Solve Online here:
Puzzle 1 - Stalemate
NOTE: If you use the online tool, turn on the "Panel" and hit the arrow to enter Chess pieces - or just use numbers 1, 2, and 3.
This is my very first time creating a Sudoku puzzle, I hope you enjoy it. I've also posted a video on YouTube showing a bit of the process I went through creating these two puzzles: https://youtu.be/4fsXdxG38yc
