The original game is:
- Code: Select all
. . 2|. . 3|. . .
9 . .|. . 8|. 1 7
. . .|2 . .|3 . 4
-----------------
. . 1|7 . .|. 6 .
2 . .|. 4 .|. . 3
. 5 .|. . 6|1 . .
-----------------
5 . 3|. . 9|. . .
7 8 .|1 . .|. . 2
. . .|3 . .|9 . .
And what I have so far after having found a hidden pair (1,9) and eliminating many pencilmarks is:
- Code: Select all
18 147 2 |45 19 3 |568 589 569
9 3 45 |456 56 8 |2 1 7
168 17 56 |2 19 57 |3 589 4
--------------------------------------------
3 9 1 |7 28 25 |4 6 58
2 6 8 |59 4 1 |57 579 3
4 5 7 |89 3 6 |1 2 89
--------------------------------------------
5 124 3 |68 278 9 |678 478 16
7 8 9 |1 56 4 |56 3 2
16 124 46 |3 278 257 |9 4578 15
I am hoping the solution is not some pair I haven't seen. I have tried some forcing chains that haven't worked. Could someone please tell me how to finish this? Thanks.
