The Greatest Loop

(Eingestellt am 26. August 2026, 22:00 Uhr von ThePedallingPianist)

This is my response to Scojo's setting prompt from a couple of weeks ago, for which Dorlir requested puzzles featuring a line type he invented for his 100th published puzzle.

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Draw a loop that moves orthogonally between the centres of some cells and does not visit any cell more than once.

For any cell in which the loop turns, the digit on that loop corner is strictly greater than the sum of the adjacent digits on the loop.

Cells with a circle are not visited by the loop, and contain a digit showing how many of the (up to 8) surrounding cells are visited by the loop.

This becomes a lot easier once you decide to read properly and realize "greater than adjacent digits" isn't the same as "greater than the sum of adjacent digits". Fun one!

Cool twist that’s well executed!

I think you're becoming addicted to 6x6s, which is no bad thing.

Very nice idea and implementation. It becomes relatively easy once you understand how powerful the constraint is.

Beautiful! I love how such a seemingly little constraint can have such important implications throughout the grid.
