Happy Mario day! This puzzle was made last year for Mnasti2 birthday. Feel free to comment what you liked and didn't. Constructive feedback is very welcome.
Rules:
1. Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits one through nine in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
2. Digits in dashed cages sum to the value in the top left corner. Digits do not repeat in dashed cages.
3. Cells separated by a black dot contain digits with a 1:2 ratio.
4. Digits in cells that are orthogonally connected to the base of an arrow are placed X spaces away from the arrows tip. Where X is the digit on the arrow.
5. All digits are pills:
Low pills 1,2,3,4
High pills 6,7,8,9
Garbage Pills 5. Have no polarity attached.
Cells containing a red, yellow, or blue box are virus cells. The colours are cosmetic only.
Each Virus has either a high or low polarity which is determined by the solver.
Eliminate virus cells by connecting ONLY four pills of the same polarity in either an adjacent horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line. The Virus cell is included in the row of four.
Puzzle:
Lösungscode: Column 5 starting from the top. No spaces
