KiMo Non-Unique Puzzle: sum modulo 10

Exemple - 1

S for spiral puzzles are very simple two-cell cage puzzles that allow you to practice basic techniques. (There is no S1 as it contained a duplicate in the underlying killer solution)

S2-S3

2-3

4-5

6-7

8-9

10-11

12-13

14-15

17-18

19-20

21-22

23-24

25-26

27-28

KiMo 27 : Numbers from www.menneske.no - this is a Disjoint Groups puzzle the Spots in each Nonet form a group of the numbers 1 to 9 with no repetition. This is the fourth dimension of the limit: Row, Column, Nonet, and Spot. This one is not too hard once you get the DG concept, but of course insolvable without it.

29-30

KiMo Puzzle 30

KiMo 30 - Based on DJApe Cool X 16699 a couple of cages were split but it is still rather brutal. I found a very interesting start which then stopped dead. The various cage splits I tried ruined the start so I have added a clue instead.

Clue: Clue: r1c(r5c2) = r5c2

In full: let X be the value in r5c2 then the cell at row 1 column X has value X.


31-32

33-34


Double KiMo Puzzle 1

Double KiMo 1: This is H3lix’s Double Interdependent Insane Killer #2 that some complained was actually too easy (they were starting to get the hang of using the double layout). I put it together in KiMo form to make it more difficult but it is still relatively easy. I am really enjoying solving these double puzzles.

Double KiMo Puzzle 2: This is Djape's "Siamese Twin" Double Killer ( if you have not tried the Killer it is currently at http://www.djape.net/sudoku/wp/). As a killer this was solvable through various routes - the main difficulty is getting your head around the layout and seeing the possibilities. As a KiMo it is slightly more difficult, but it is still a matter of recognising the layout possibilities.

While it is not a difficult one it is still very enjoyable.

Double KiMo Puzzle 3

Double KiMo Puzzle 3: A very difficult one for those of you who do not want to spend all your weekend watching the World Cup. This is effectively a Frame Sudoku but simplified a bit as frames seem almost impossible to solve in KiMo format. Comments welcome.

DG Killer 1


DG Killer Puzzle 2

(based on Menneske numbers) a fully symmetrical DG killer

DG Killer Puzzle 3

DG KiMo Puzzle 3 - my first full DG KiMo - it's quite interesting

DG KiMo Puzzle 5

DG KiMo 5: lots of doublets - a very hard breakthrough but then it flows quite well

DG KiMo Puzzle 7

DG KiMo 7: this one is significantly easier probably easier than #3
