Hope you enjoy this one, do leave a comment if you like it! Further 'six' puns and silly rule suggestions are more than welcome.
RULES
- Normal Sudoku Rules Apply: Fill the grid such that the digits 1-9 appear once each in every row, column, and 3×3 box.
- Let's Talk About Six, Baby: A 6 must appear on every constraint (line, dot, or cage).
- Let's Talk About Two & Three: A 6 must always be orthogonally adjacent to exactly one 2 and exactly one 3.
- Index lines: On an index line, the digit in the Nth cell along the line (starting from the diamond) indicates the position along the line where the digit N appears. Eg: 3214 would be a valid line; the 1st digit, 3, indicates that the 3rd digit is a 1, and so on. Index lines do not merge or cross.
- Killer Cages: Digits cannot repeat within a cage, and sum to the small number in the top left corner, if given.
- Ratio dots: A black dot separates two cells where one digit is double the other. Not all dots are given.
- The Sixth Sense: The grid is covered in fog. Placing a correct digit in any cell will clear fog from that cell. Placing a 6 correctly will also clear fog elsewhere on the grid.

Hi there, great puzzle!
But for me, the password doesn't show as well ...

sshrpe: this is really confusing, I wonder if it’s different devices doing different things? Either way, thanks for the kind words

mowi12: Thanks!
Yes, could be. I used Firefox and have some JS-Blockers installed. Maybe this causes some issues.

Hi there - I've been attempting to register my solve, but I don't seem to see the password that's alluded to for the solution code - please advise?

sshrpe: oh no! Sorry to hear that, I'm not sure why that is, and it's definitely showing up for me :/
