Numbered Corridors 1 (Entropic Lines, Numbered Rooms)
(Eingestellt am 30. Januar 2023, 15:00 Uhr von Crusader175)
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Entropic Lines: Any set of three sequential cells along an entropic line must contain a low (1,2,3), middle (4,5,6), and high (7,8,9) digit. An entropic line of length 2 may not contain two digits from the same strata.
Numbered Rooms: Clues outside the grid indicate the digit which has to be placed in the Nth cell in the corresponding direction, where N is the digit placed in the first cell in that direction.
Every Numbered Rooms clue forms an Entropic Lines starting from the N to Nth cell. (Note: N =1 is possible)

I dont understand the third rule. N to Nth? If N was 4, that would say from 4 to 4th, it would be the same cell.
Nth from the edge? Nth from the given number?
Reply: N is first cell near the clue. So it will be line of length N in that direction. Example: https://f-puzzles.com/?id=2d9a5hbl

This was just delightful. I really like entropy puzzles and i am terrible at numbered puzzles. But this puzzle combine them in a perfect way and the solve is very smooth. Thank you for this puzzle.

Very interesting puzzles! Combined with the third rule in the ruleset, it also seems to make numbered rooms less intimidating.
(Because this is one of the types of questions that I am quite afraid of, I have done several related puzzles before, and each one took me a long time...)
Oh, and it's easy to make mistakes if you don't notice "N=1 is possible" when reading the ruleset.
(yes, I'm the guy who didn't notice that in the first place, and caused the answer to go wrong...)
Reply: Thank you! I try to make it not too difficult for the first puzzle in this series. Glad you like it. :)
