CASE 2476

4 July

  • Kropki dots
  • Thermometers
  • Minimum and maximum cells
  • Fortress

The brief

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Numbers on thermometers increase from the bulb end (the center of each firework color is a bulb end). Numbers with a white dot between them are consecutive. Not all possible dots are given. The gray cell is a maximum cell, which is greater than all orthogonal neighbors.
