*** TODAY'S PUZZLE *** Tonight we attempt the sixth puzzle, Equilibrium, in one of the most epic of sudoku series: Marty Sears' Rat Runs. The adventures of Finkz continue - this time with blackcurrants and a teleport - as she attempts to get to the cupcake :) These sudokus are so fun to solve - we can't remember this one highly enough! Play the puzzle at the link below: https://sudokupad.app/3xa2x14bxe Rules: Normal sudoku rules apply. Finkz the rat must reach the cupcake by finding a path through the maze. The path must not visit any cell more than once, cross itself, or pass through any thick maze walls. As well as moving orthogonally, Finkz may move diagonally if there's a 2x2 space in which to do so, but may never pass diagonally through a round wall-spot on the corner of a cell. Entering a yellow teleport will cause Finkz to be instantly transported to the other teleport. From there she can continue her journey. The teleports contain the same digit. Finkz may only pass directly through a purple arrow if moving in the direction the arrow is pointing. An arrow always points to the smaller of the two values it sits between. Cells connected by a blackcurrant are in a 1:2 ratio (one is double the other.) Not all possible blackcurrants have been given. In this experiment, the sum of the digits on the path before teleporting must equal the sum of the digits on the path after teleporting.
