Kings in the Cages
This is my third puzzle, feedback is always appreciated, I hope the solve goes as smoothly as I have it imagined. This should be in the 2* difficulty range. Please let me know if it is easier/harder
Rules:
Normal Sudoku Rules: Place the digits 1-9 in every row, column and 3x3 box
Killer: Digits in a cage must not repeat and must sum to the number in the top left corner
Kropki: Digits separated by a white dot must be consecutive; digits separated by a black dot must be in a 1:2 ratio. Not all dots are given.
Kings Move: Digits a chess King's move away must not repeat

Edited rules to indicate no negative constraint on Kropkis

Since I managed to solve it. In 38:40 mind you. you pros should be able to do it under 10. Once i saw there was no solution checking i almost put it aside. But i gotta stop starting these just before dinner time (here in California).

Very nice puzzle, compliments on the setting! I enjoyed solving the puzzle a lot, smooth but not straightforward. I agree that it should be somewhere between 2 and 3 stars

Any negative constraints on the Kropki's? Thanks

You are correct, there is no negative constraint for the kropki's in this puzzle

Nice setting. Quite smooth but had to look a few times. 2.5/5
