Foggy Snakedoku
(Eingestellt am 29. Mai 2025, 20:02 Uhr von scarfdoku)
Normal sudoku rules apply
The grid is partially covered in fog.
Only by revealing digits along the snake can you clear away the fog.
You will have to place numbers in the fog to progress.
Kropki dots: Digits separated by a white Kropki dot have a difference in value of 1. Digits separated by a black Kropki dot have a value ratio of 1:2. Not all dots are given.
X sums: Digits separated by an X sum to 10. Not all X are given.
This is my first puzzle, let me know if there are any issues.

Lösungscode: Row 2, no spaces

Was worth solving the puzzle just for the snake drawing, Really enjoyed it (both the puzzle and the drawing)

A small change to the rules and the fog. Should be a less jank.
I have a much better understanding of the kind of testing I'll need to do for next time, to avoid revisions like these.
Also added a little bonus.

Great and fun solve, the instructions and flow made sense to me

Another revision with slightly better fog.
I was under the incorrect impression that R7C8 had to worked backwards from R5C9 and that revealing R7C7's space would make it too easy.
So as is, it's a little jank but I think having the cell's clear on input would make the end very straightforward and might not be as fun.

Very cute, though I may now have to try it with the additional triggers to see if I can catch some of the logic sooner.

Thanks! I agree, it's exactly like you said, it's all feedback. I don't even view it as nitpicking.

People are nitpicking your fog placement, and it’s important feedback so you can improve, but I also just want to say that despite being your first puzzle, that was a lot of fun! Thanks for setting!

I've added some more triggers to lift the fog, so it is more obvious that you are making progress. Should be even more clear where the snake ends now.
Thanks for all the feedback.

Confusing when placing correct digits doesn’t lift the fog. Should this be dynamic fog?

good puzzle, bit unsettled by the fog not clearing but pushed through

Good catch. Fixed the ending from having multiple solutions. Making puzzles is hard.

If the idea is to work out the path before the fog clears. I don't see how you know tne snake doesn't end up in row 5 column 7.

I'm afraid the dynamic fog got broken at some point... managed to solve the puzzle with fog, up to a 89 X-wing, then I had to guess. Also the Solution code is not working for me, even though my solution is checked as correct.
