How To Solve Palpatine's Design

We're delighted to share with you this lovely video by Philip Newman where he explains the genesis of Palpatine's Design - one of the hardest Classic sudokus of all time - as well as how to solve it!

Congratulations to Emmanuel Van Hese (Pulsar77) and Bill Murphy on winning the competition! And our thanks once again to Philip.

In the URL, simply replace the word "app" with the word "test". Leave everything else the same.

And I have another question, about the Sudoku pad this time: I have seen Simon enter "test" mode a few times on the channel, where you have more freedom, like entering the puzzle or have more freedom with the app. Is this something for the puzzle designers only, or can regular users of the pad use it too? I'd love to be able to play with different puzzles on Sven's fantastic pad.

Since apparently links might not be sharable in the comments in YouTube, I'd like ask here instead: is there a link to play Loki online? Thanks for this great video, Philip, I learned a lot from your presentation of this and related puzzles.

Thank you for this explanation video: it was a really fascinating look into “more advanced”sudoku chains, which now seems “obvious in hindsight” (the sign of a really good explanation!). Ewen

Thank you once again for selecting my solution! It is my 8th day on Patreon, so I couldn't have asked for a better welcome :-) For those who are interested, here's a link to my solution: https://www.docdroid.net/lvlNfX4/palpatines-design-pdf

Awesome, very interesting!

Well damn…. Pretty elegant really, even if my tiny brain couldn’t see it 🤣
