It's Odd Outside

(Published on 13. April 2025, 09:43 by sujoyku)

It was such fun to set the puzzle Up to N that I had to continue exploring the ruleset. I like to thank all testers and wish you joyful solving!

- Normal sudoku rules apply, i.e. each row, column, and 3x3 box has to contain the digits from 1 to 9 once each.

- Up to N-sums: A clue outside the Row or Column N indicates the sum of all digits up to the cell that contains the digit N. (The digit N itself is not included in the sum.)

Example: If Row 1 reads 234156789, it would have an Up to N-sum clue of 2+3+4=9 because 2, 3 and 4 are the digits appearing before the row number N=1.

Here you can solve the puzzle online:

I found this one a bit trickier than Up To N! Loved every second of it though. Box 7 had me scratching my head for a good minute. Great sequel, love this ruleset. Thanks!
