Anti-Knight Untouch Sudoku 1 - 2020

(K)Night King Sudoku.

Hi All,

It had been a long time since I posted a puzzle on the blog. With the website being active for the last one year, I have been busy creating and providing free puzzles there for you all to solve online. If you haven't been there yet, I suggest you head to sudokumaniacs right now and register.

So today's puzzle is a combination or a hybrid sudoku as it is called. The rules of classic sudoku apply. Additionally, each of the 9 digits cannot repeat at a knight's step from itself and also at a king's step from itself. So it is a combination of 2 chess moves.

Hope you all have fun solving it. It is only a slightly difficult side. Happy Solving.


AntiKnight-NonConsecutive 2019 - 1

Last week I received a message from Simon Anthony, a member of the UK Sudoku team and an avid video blogger. He has a YouTube channel where he picks up puzzles of various authors and explains to his visitors the approach take to solve them. So Simon messaged me and said that another friend of ours Christoph Seeliger, had recommended a puzzle of mine to be featured on Simon's YouTube Channel.

The puzzle in question was an Antiknight - NonConsecutive sudoku that I had created way back in 2013. I was pleasantly surprised that Chistoph remembered the puzzle after so many years.

What Simon has done in the video is remarkable. He has made the approach to such mutant variants so simple. This video becomes a good guide for people who wish to learn how to solve an Anti-Knight Sudoku and also a Non-Consecutive sudoku.
