Logic Masters Deutschland e.V.

Welcome to the Carnival!

Today's carnival game will be High Striker; swing a hammer, ring the bell, and win a prize!

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Row 9 is filled with targets of various colors that serve as the targets for the solver to hit with their hammer. The number placed on each target represents the "strength" of the swing, and indicates the length of the vertical line that extends from the target, including the target cell (see column 5 for an example).

Green targets indicate German whisper lines, adjacent digits on the line must differ by at least 5.

Red targets indicate parity lines, digits on the line must alternate between even and odd.

Gray targets indicate thermometers, on which digits must strictly increase from the bulb. The target in row 9 will serve as the bulb end of the thermometer.

Cells on the same type of line positioned a knight's move away in chess cannot contain the same digit.
