So There
(Eingestellt am 15. Juni 2025, 05:00 Uhr von Sotehr)
PUZZLE
RULES
Squishdoku: Normal Squishdoku rules apply; place the digits 1-9 at most once in every row, column, and 3x3 box. There are nine 3x3 boxes, which overlap at the dashed lines.
So There! Lines (Index Lines): With the diamond as the first position (if given), for every digit X in the Nth position, there must also be a digit N in the Xth position.
NOTES
Expected Difficulty: 2 stars
This puzzle is for a Setting Saturday prompt chosen by
Ratfinkz, with the theme being based your internet handle: the rules either start with the same letter as your username... or is a pun of it. I misread the prompt originally and created
S Class, which I ultimately could not submit for the prompt. (But still is a pretty good puzzle, I think!)
"So there" is a pun on my name, but also something I frequently say when trying to place digits on Index Lines, so I though it was fitting.
Enjoy!

Fun puzzle! Liked it. Just curious: is your name that “Soter” after many king’s name like Ptolemy I Soter?
- One of the formative books I read as a child was a science fiction novel, "Aristoi" by Walter Jon Williams. It's main character is awarded the title "Sotehr," which is likely based on historical "Soter." So, to answer your question: yes, but indirectly. :) - Sotehr
Thank you for replying! Wow, I mean, I saw the introduction of the book and it’s like, totally Ptolemy I, which the book I have never checked before. How intriguing! I’ll check the book later. Thanks again!
