Stumbling Through the Fog
(Published on 14. September 2026, 07:57 by lgastako)
Here's my latest fog puzzle. These are a bit trickier for me in terms of making them fun but I liked enough of the logic in this one that I thought it was worth sharing. As always, feedback is welcomed an encouraged.
- Normal Sudoku Rules: Fill each row, column, and 3x3 box with the digits 1-9 once each.
- Fog: Parts of the board are initially hidden. Entering correct digits will clear the fog in surrounding cells. No guessing is necessary.
- German Whispers: Along green lines, digits must differ from their neighbors by at least 5.
- Renban: Purple lines contain a non-repeating set of consecutive digits in any order.
- Killer Cages: Digits in cages must not repeat and must sum to the number in the upper left corner of the cage (if present).
- White Kropkis/Black Kropkis: Digits in cells separated by a white dot are consecutive. Digits in cells separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio.
- There is at least one "3 in the corner" (of the board) in this puzzle.

Lucky, I reread the rules or I would be stuck in a deadly pattern!
I also assumed green was German Whispers! Nice puzzle, thank you.
