X---V*5
(Eingestellt am 25. April 2025, 06:00 Uhr von NurglesGift)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Orthogonally adjacent cells can not sum to 5 or 10.
Two lines of the same length and same color are connected X lines.
Counting from the bulb, the first cell of each connected X line sum to 10. the second cell of each line sum to 10 etc.
There is a 3x3 magic square somewhere in the grid.
(A magic square is a 3x3 square with the digits 1-9 where all rows, columns and diagonals have the same sum)
.............................
Note that 5 can be on a line.

I thought it deserved 5 stars

I put this one as 4* and I think that is fair.
Sure after the break in you could argue it's no more then 3*. but then again even if the logic is not extreme I'm sure many people spend hours on the solve. and then should a puzzle rating be for people who done other puzzles of this kind or for completely new people? :)

I don't normally comment to say a difficulty rating is wrong (though I have given my personal thoughts on difficulty) because ultimately what is easy/hard for one person can be totally different for another. So a crowd made difficulty will be fine. But I have to say this one seems way off. If you have any familiarity with this ruleset and magic squares (which I think is most of the community) this is pretty routine and is more a 2.5* puzzle, imo. Unless I really screwed up logic somewhere but got lucky this is no where close to 5*

I had to resort to some light bifurcation just at the start, after that flowed very nicely.

Just noticed your recent earlier puzzles with the similar constraints. Definitely gonna check them out as well.
