Puzzle No. 490 : Descriptive Pairs Sudoku [Daily League]

I was supposed to post this yesterday but I fell ill and didn’t access the internet at all (which folks who know me should realize is a really big deal!).

Anyway, I’ll probably edit this post later with PDFs, but for now, just hurrying through the post.

Remember that you can solve the puzzles from the League online on the Sudokucup Guest League page with a 24h delay (though I’m not certain whether this is too late to be put up today).

Rules – Follow regular Sudoku rules. Additionally, for every pair of outside clues X and Y, at least one of these cases is true :

1) X is in the Yth position in that direction.

2) Y is in the Xth position in that direction.

Remember that you can solve the puzzles from the League online on the Sudokucup Guest League page with a 24h delay.

This is also Ex-Championship but, I changed it a little to make it easier for the Championship. This is the original hard version. There’s a few challenging spots.

Rules – Follow regular Sudoku rules. Additionally, some thermometer shapes are in the grid; digits must be strictly increasing from the round bulb to the flat end.

Rated – Hard.

Enjoy!
