True Yin, False Yang
(Eingestellt am 5. Mai 2026, 00:52 Uhr von The Bard)
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1-9 in each row, column and box without repetition.
Yin Yang: shade some cells so that all shaded and unshaded cells form 2 form orthogonally connected areas such that no 2x2 area is entirely shaded or unshaded, and all the clues values in the unshaded area are liar clues and not true. Some cells are shaded and therefore true clues. Each clue is either fully shaded or unshaded.
XV Pairs: Digits separated by an X sum to 10. Digits separated by a V sum to 5.
Arrow: Digits on an arrow must sum to the digit placed in that arrow's circle.
Kropki Pairs: Digits separated by a black dot must be in a 2:1 ratio. Digits separated by a white dot must be consecutive.

Lösungscode: Only shaded/true digits on row 5, do not include digits that are unshaded/liars.

Very clever setting with a nice solution. It might be helpful to clarify that the pre-shaded squares are in fact yin-yang shaded as per the instructions. Thanks!

What fun! I assumed the grey cells were pre-shaded, which in fact they are.

Usually I try to avoid Yinyang puzzles, but this one was really delightful. I almost stuck at one moment, but it's only because I forgot that liars are lying.

Took me a while to truly get all the rules, but once I got going it was really fun and nicely flowing puzzle.

Amazing! I like the mix of shading and finding out the numbers at the same time.

Thank you very much for creating and sharing this nice YY-puzzle. Usually I don’t like liar-puzzles, but within this ruleset they work surprisingly fine!

what do grey cells mean?

Thanks for the clarification. Very nice puzzle. Pleasure from start to finish.

So, if a clue is partly shaded and partly unshaded, is it true or false?
~~
I added clarity. All clues are either shaded or unshaded, never both.

The link directs me to "Positive Negativity" on CTC

That was weird, it looked like the right link but... It should work now.
