I Am Groot -- Vampires
(Eingestellt am 8. Januar 2024, 16:00 Uhr von Blobz)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits along a blue line have an equal sum N within each box it passes through. Different lines may have different values for N.
The two blue circles (Groot's eyes) denote odd digits.
Digits in cages do not repeat and sum to the value shown.
There are 9 vampires (digits 1-9 once each) in the grid; one in each row, column and box. There are also 9 victims (digits 1-9 once each) in the grid; one in each row, column and box. For purposes of cage totals and blue lines: (a) vampire cells have a value equal to the sum of their digit plus the digit of the victim cell in their box, and (b) victim cells have a value of 0.
Have fun, leave a comment if you enjoy the puzzle!
Lösungscode: Row 8 followed by Row 9

Struggled very hard with finishing until I realized that the vampires / victims are a set from 1-9. Silly me. Apart from that hick up I had a lot of fun solving!

I loved the way this flowed after one specific deduction. I've found vampires hit and miss before, but this is excellent!

This is a very fun and challenging puzzle!
The setting was brilliant with a consistent solve path featuring many neat tricks that emerge from the constraint.
Awesome job!
