Prime Directive

(Eingestellt am 31. Juli 2024, 05:00 Uhr von Will Power)

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Numbers in circles and pills are each a UNIQUE prime number from the following list: 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97. Pills are read from left to right or top to bottom. Cells with a gray circle are odd. Cells with a gray square are even. KROPKI PAIR- Numbers with a black dot between them are in a ratio of 2:1. Not all possible dots are shown. HINT: Count the digits.

You always create very nice yet approachable puzzles! Late comment on this one, but I just stumbled on it while looking for something else... In my similarly themed and named puzzle "The Prime Directive" (ID: 000CKI) from 1 February 2023, all 24 prime numbers below 100 (except 11) are placed horizontally. There I also remarked on the relation to prior prime-positioning puzzles.

for me the placement of the 83 and 89 pair was the key for solving. The 23 took care of itself.

Thank you for this great puzzle, Will Power! I found the start to be the most difficult phase. Once I got going, it solved very smoothly.

I suspect the lower solve count is just because of difficulty, rather than lack of interest. It was a really cool puzzle though, once I got rolling.

Don't think I would have made it or thought of the trick without your hint about counting the digits.

Wonderful puzzle! One star for me, very easy but smooth and satisfying solving path.

Amazing to set all primes below 100 in a sudoku grid! Thanks for setting and sharing @ Will Power :). Wonder if someone will come up with a diagonal version where the lonely 11 can also be accommodated !

@Bankey There are 9 threes and 9 sevens in primes before 100. Adding the 11 would make it 9 ones. That is an extremely tight fit. I am also finding that these prime puzzles are not too popular. In almost 2 days, there are only 16 solves (as of this writing). I try to make puzzles that at least 80 people complete. Just trying to spread the joy. If they become more popular, I might try to squeeze the 11 in when (if) I do the next one. Thanks for the suggestion. Peace to you. -Will Power

If you find my puzzle "Prime and Ratio Pairs", from 2023, you might just find 11 peeping out. 8-) Peace to you. -Will Power

Nice one! Definitely a lot different than your normal puzzles. Enjoyed the change of pace!

Definitely one of the more difficult puzzles from Will Power today, I overcoloured and got lost in the sauce, so I would suggest other colouring enthusiasts find the first digit and then uncolour everything and only recolour what you need. :)
