Easy Eight (Einfach Acht)

- Standard Sudoku Rules Apply
- Dice
- Two identical standard six-sided dice are shown on the grid.
- (On a standard die, the pips on the two faces opposite each other on the cube add to seven.)
- Pips
- A white pip separates consecutive digits (white Kropki dot).
- A black pip separates digits that are in a 2:1 ratio (black Kropki dot).
- The seven squares containing and/or sharing the magenta pips form a single set of consecutive digits without repeating (Renban).
- Gray pips have no meaning (decorative only).
- Edges
- On the lavender line, every pair of digits equidistant from two specific squares on the line sums to the digit in those two squares (double Zipper line). That sum is the total number of pips on that die that are NOT visible to the solver. The location of the squares holding the sum must be determined by the solver.
- Each digit along the green line differs by five or more from its neighbors on the line (German Whispers).
- The digits along the gray line form a palindrome.
- The red lines have no meaning (decorative only).

pretty hard to sort out the 36 pair in box 5 - after that, it becomes fairly easy..
important trivia:
opposite faces on a d6 sum to 7. ALL faces on 1d6 sum to 21. sum of all faces on 2d6 = 42, which is the answer to life, the universe, and everything.
