Pick-up Sticks (Grey)
(Eingestellt am 15. Mai 2025, 13:18 Uhr von marty_sears)
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Each grey stick is a palindrome, reading the same in either direction.
A stick always has a lower total (the sum of its digits) than any stick which lies on top of it.
Please leave a comment if you enjoy :)

Nice pile of grey sticks. Much easier for me than the orange one. Thanks!

Great puzzle, I loved the way the constraints worked together in this one and how all the lines interacted. Very cool.

Nice solve that required to combine different techniques to make significanr progress. Unfortunately I made mistakes along the way and had to restart, but that's on me. Thanks again.

Probably the hardest of the set for me so far (including nabner since I'm going out of order), but really such a delight. Such a fun ruleset to explore with Marty while we wait for the next season of rat run ;)

This took me a lot longer than I care to admit, but thoroughly enjoyed every second!

More mikado!
Nice! I found it a bit trickier than the first one, but I got there eventually, in 87 minutes.

I'm surprised by how nicely these two simple rules complement each other. I can't put my finger on it, but this puzzle feels a little different than your usual puzzles, but that's neither good nor bad. Either way, I really enjoyed it :)

Surprisingly easy after the break-in. But an awful lot of fun! Palindromes work really well to narrow down your options for stick sums.

Very cool puzzle. I was surprised how different the logic was from the Orange version!!

Awesome puzzle. The break in so beautiful. Looking forward to more stick puzzles.

Interesting logic. I like the continuation of the pick-up sticks series!

Really nice new ruleset! Thank you for setting!

Not sure what you changed from your previous version of this puzzle. But now it has a unique solution and it isn't the same solution that the solution checker validated the first time I solved it. I like the pick up sticks rule set. That's a nice new addition.
Marty: Thankyou, I had to fix something as I had made a mistake in the first version
