The Pick of Destiny
(Eingestellt am 26. Juni 2025, 21:45 Uhr von ViKingPrime)
PUZZLE:
RULES:
eXtreme SUDOKU rules apply!
(like normal Sudoku rules but cooler; i.e. fill the grid with the digits 1-9 so that digits don't repeat in a row, column or marked 3x3 box but do so in the service of rock-and-roll).
Digits along a ROCK-OMETER! must strictly increase from bulb to tip
(note: the green guitar pick in Row 1 is also considered a Rock-ometer!).
In the grid, there is a TENACIOUS digit 'D' — to be determined by the solver — that must appear on every Rock-ometer!
Digits along each DIAGONAL must not repeat.
INTRODUCTION:
This isn't the best puzzle in the world, this is just a tribute.
Have fun!

Interesting use of diagonals. Great puzzle and fun theming!

LOL. Completing digit in the whole grid is more difficult than inputing the solution code. Nice puzzle btw

This puzzle rules! That D digit was sweet to find
If the solution code isn't to your liking, try imagining the input box is a crevasse

Phenomenal flavor, and a great puzzle as well! The solution code itself is a little meh, but sacrifices must be made in the name of ultimate awesome.

I often think this specific kind of theming around puzzles is contrived and kind of dumb but I absolutely cannot complain about a Tenacious D sudoku.
I would never have thought in a million years these two things would come even remotely near each other

Nice one, Wonder Boy.

Very fun puzzle. However, the solution code seems needlessly vague. Just type in the "D" digit 9 times.
