The Coolest Sudoku Of All Time
1,463*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
A spectacular innovation on a classic ruleset today from the duo Pacattack25 and Schwupel. Their puzzle Subzero features thermometers and Yin Yang rules but these are not normal thermos - they can contain negative values (!) This one will warp your brain (in a good way!)
Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/mNj477fmL9
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Each cell in the grid has to be marked either hot or cold such that i) all hot cells form a single orthononally connected region; ii) all cold cells form a single orthogonally connected region; and iii) no 2x2 area is entirely hot or cold. Values on a thermometer must be increasing from the bulb to the tip. Cold cells on a thermometer are considered to be negative values.
