Chinmax Skystrappers
(Eingestellt am 30. Mai 2025, 18:04 Uhr von ChinStrap)
Set for a Scojo setting prompt for making rules with your name as a pun. I took minmax quads and made them chinnier, and took skyscrapers and did nothing to them. I hope you enjoy!
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Chinmax Quads: A value in a rounded diamond indicates the difference between the highest and lowest digit in the four cells touching the diamond. For instance, if the four cells contain 1518 then the diamond would have a value 7.
- Skystrappers: All outside cells on a clue must contain a digit. That digit counts how many digits are 'seen' looking into the grid in the row/column. Digits are visible when they are larger than all digits before them.
All feedback (positive or critical) appreciated!
Lösungscode: Row 6, left to right (9 digits)

Excellent. Some cool logic pops out here, and I'm a fan of how well the setting brings out the potential of these Chinmax quads. I like these a lot and would like to see them in more puzzles. Quite a fun solve. Thank you!!

Sudokupad says I have the right answer but entering row 5 here says I am wrong. Entering row 6 here says I am correct though.

ChinStrap: Thank you! That was a typo in the description for solution. Fixed now

I found this very hard, but what an interesting puzzle this is. The quads linking "real" digits to outside clues is spectacular. Thank you, ChinStrap!
