Spooky Action at a Distance

- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Some cells contain ghosts. Not all ghosts are visible!
- Each ghost with the digit N is staring at another ghost with the digit N, exactly N diagonal steps away.
- A headstone shows the sum of the ghosts in its column.
Lösungscode: Ghosts in the bottom 3 rows

This is probably the hardest puzzle that I've been able to complete entirely on my own - 4/5 stars intimidated me but the concept was so fun that I had to try. Took me a bit over 2 hours, which for me is a win! Thanks for the puzzle.

Beautiful! I got there in the end. This was very challenging for me but I loved it. So many gorgeous interactions between ghosts, and the two tombstones added a really nice extra layer of logic which complimented the diagonal ghost logic perfectly. Perfect halloween treat

@juggler, is the visibility confined to the available straight diagonal line till the edge of the grid, or can the line of sight continue after bouncing off the grid edge ? In other words, for example, can a ghost at r2c3 see another ghost at r3c6 if both were a 3 ? Thanks.

juggler: Sadly, there are no mirrors in this puzzle, just ordinary sight lines :)

Thanks, juggler. Clearly, ghosts don't like mirrors :).

So many great deductions and aha moments one after another - but don’t forget to do a bit of sudoku!

3.5*for me, some very nice logic embedded in there. Thanks!

Thank you juggler! This was incredibly difficult, but rewarding.
I wonder if I missed some grand principle: for me there was a lot of work disambiguating options, especially towards the end of the solve.
