When in Rome, make them do

The idea comes fromKlomp's puzzle This one should be a quick easy puzzle, so here's 4 (I don't want to post it two times and make up for previous only one 6X6 ones)

Standard sudoku rules applies. Fill the grid with numbers from 1 to 6 so each digit occurs exactly once in every row, column and 3x3 box.

In every box, there's a landlord, the box number. He like to see every one on his land to have the same parity as he is, thank god he's short-sighted. If there is a digit who has a different parity from the landlord and the digit just happen to be on the landlord's land, just happen to be within the landlord's reach--8 cells that surround the lord or cells orthogonally and diagonally connected to the lord cell, the digit would be forced to wear a slave suit, which would be seen as a property of the lord.

Normal kropki rules applies. Black dot means digit on one side twice the value of the other side. White dot means digit on one side is 1 bigger than the other. 12 can be black or white. The dots only care about masters, which means those in slave suits would be treated as their landlord.

All possible dots are given. So if a 2 in box 1 happened to be next to 1, the box 1 landlord, nobody in box 1, would dot that 2. A 3 can black dot 6 or a 135 which is in box 6 and next to box 6's 6


This puzzle is made by Old Miles from China. That's why I called it courteous in the previous puzzle. A landlord is exactly the opposite of a gentleman. I also have ideas of agent Smith of Matrix and pope for conversion, but for the sequel, I'll stick with the landlord.

Also, I won't add penpa or f-puzzle link from now on. I don't want the comment filled with the discussion of how to use a thing I never use and come to a conclusion that the puzzle sucks. Unless I see a better reason, or no link.

I didn't put that much effort into figuring out the hardest solution code in this one, because it's all too easy. If you still complain about the solution code, what do you want, 6X6 won't get any harder.

spoiler or warning

You probably will break it the first time you solve it. Take your time. These puzzles are interesting to me. Once I get the hang of the rules, it just become so smooth. There are so many tricks that can be found and they are all useful. I'll put the tricks I found in the hidden comment so don't worry. In a word, every dot inside a box is a break on point. Also, it's a miracle that black dot can be harder than white dot, That's really counter intuitive. I really hope you can enjoy them as I do.

Lösungscode: Last row from top left to top right, 3rd row from bottom left to bottom right (24 digits) only the real number
