Almost Pretty (Little Killer)

(Published on 7. May 2025, 00:44 by Chefofdeath)

Almost Pretty

This is a puzzle that I originally published as a part of my Rehearsal Puzzle Pack. However, shortly after releasing the puzzle pack I decided that I didn’t really think that either of the 6x6’s belonged in my catalogue and I decided to take the whole puzzle pack down. After doing that I realized that I did very much believe this puzzle belonged on here still and so I decided to post it on it’s own.

Rules:

Normal Sudoku rules apply.

Little Killer: Clues outside the grid give the sum of the digits along their indicated diagonal.

Cool puzzle! I quite liked this one. The symmetry here goes crazy. Very tricky to set everything up just right, though. Very clever setting. Thank you!

Thank you! Glad you found the symmetry and its tricks enjoyable :)

Yeah I might have underestimated this one’s difficulty. Thank you for solving and glad you stuck through with it! Also thank you for being such a consistent and kind solver of my puzzles! It’s very much appreciated :)

_________________________________

You might be right with the difficulty tbh. For some reason, little killers are one of the harder variants for me. Thermo, knights, regualr killers, etc. seem easier for me for whatever reason. Kind of like college when stats and quantum mechanics were not bad, but I struggled with E&M 2 like no other. Not sure why. Brain blind spot. And the pleasure is all mine. I really appreciate you and all other creators for giving me daily opportunity to do a favorite hobby.
