Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- Deuces Wild: The digit 2 is a *wild card*. While it must still adhere to normal sudoku rules, the 2 digit may, for the purpose of fulfilling other constraints, take on any integer value from 1 to 9. Different instances of the digit
2 may take on different values from each other, but a single instance may not take on multiple values to satisfy multiple constraints. All constraints attached to a particular instance of the digit two must be satisfied by a single *wild* value; which may be the value 2 itself).
- Killer Cages: digits must sum to the value in the cage (digits may not repeat - but values may repeat if one of the digits is wild).
- Arrows: values on the arrow must sum to the value in the bulb. (note the term 'value' as opposed to 'digit'). Digits/values may repeat if allowed by other rules.
- German Whispers: Values next to each other on the line must differ by at least 5.
- Palindrome: Values on the palindrome read the same from either end.
- Kropki Pairs: Black dots indicate a 2:1 ratio between the values in adjoining cells. White dots indicate consecutive values. Not all possible dots are shown.
- XV Pairs: Xs indicate a sum of 10 for the values in adjoining cells. Vs indicate a sum of 5. Not all possible Xs or Vs are shown.
