Double Counting
(Eingestellt am 24. August 2026, 00:12 Uhr von jwsinclair)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Double arrows: the sum of the digits along each burgundy line is equal to the sum of the two digits in the connected circles.
Counting Circles: a digit in a double-arrow circle indicates how many circles in the puzzle contain that digit.
Quadruple circles: the digit inside the white circle appears in one of the four cells surrounding that circle.
Digits in cells separated by an X sum to 10.

Note: I set the initial difficulty at 4/5.

Very nice, but not 4* difficutly. Once broken in, it's just very easy.

Lovely puzzle, really nice break-in and not too difficult

I give it 2* difficulty and 5* beauty. The break-in is nicely done.

Very nice! I found the break-in a bit tricky, so there may have been an easier way in. Thanks

Thanks so much! Without knowing what you found, I do think there's a break-in that's not *that* tricky, but it might be hard to find and can probably be bypassed. I'm going to edit the post to note that I put the initial difficulty at 4*

Very nice puzzle! Double arrows is my favorite constraint. I made a puzzle with the same rule set about a year ago: https://logic-masters.de/Raetselportal/Raetsel/zeigen.php?id=000N9H
