- BremSter solves "Casting About in the Dark" by FullDeck and Missing a Few Cards.
A Fog Sudoku using the Consecutive Pairs and Pointing Thermos constraints.
Solve in Sven's SudokuPad WebApp: sudokupad.app/...
This puzzle has been published to Logic Masters Germany: logic-masters....
📋 Puzzle Rules:
• Standard sudoku rules apply: The digits 1 through 9 appear in every row, column, and box.
• Fog: Part of the grid is covered with fog. As correct digits are placed, the fog will clear from cells surrounding the correct digit, revealing additional clues. There is always enough information in the revealed portion of the grid to place another correct digit without guessing. Digits can be placed within the fog.
• Consecutive Dots: Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Not all possible dots are necessarily given.
• Pointing Thermometers: Digits along thermometers must strictly increase from bulb to tip. In addition, the digit in the bulb of the thermometer appears X cells away from the tip, in the direction pointed to by the tip, where X is the value in the tip of the thermometer.

Yet another brilliant puzzle by FD & MaFC. The flow was absolutely amazing! 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the feature! Really enjoyed the solve and you can credit arbitrary with this pointing thermometers constraint.
Always enjoy it when BremSter showcases the two of you, whether it’s one of your puzzles or as the quirky guest hosts! Loved this one and the constraint.
@@StGordo61 thank you so much! Very kind :)
I really love this! I often struggle with FD/MAFC puzzles, but once I got over freaking out and started thinking, it flowed very smoothly for me. I finished just over 27 minutes, which makes me quite happy. Thanks for sharing this!
A truly elegant puzzle. What I love about the pointing constraint is that short thermos are normally not very restrictive in terms of yielding a break in. But the additional pointing constraint really makes for an approachable puzzle. Beautiful job at setting this one FD & MAFC, and nice solve Bremster. 😊
@@tzampini thank you:)
Very nice puzzle. I love the fog puzzle because they require me to focus my efforts and be really careful abot not guessing.
7:40 Now imagine pointing thermos on a thorus, where lines and columns wrap. That would be something for the more nefarious among creators.
13:48 an awesome combo of constraints / rules
Yey! A lovely fog puzzle with a great rule! Thanks
At 20 minutes that was some crazy logic to avoid using the 6 in the column to eliminate the 6 on the tip. Cool mind you.
That was a beautiful puzzle! So smooth with such simple but amazing logic built in.
Few things are certain, but a FullDeck and Missing a Few Cards puzzle is almost guaranteed to be a good time.
And, yeah, "guessing" at fog sudoku is like cheating at solitaire.
@@stevewithaq thank you :)
for some reason i couldn't understand the thermo rule for about 10 min... definitely a me problem! the break-in was clear after i got over that mental block: and it's a fun rule.
Nice puzzle!
16:24, very nice
Very nice puzzle, 19:33 for me without waiting for hints. I did good today.
What a great new constraint!
24:31 but had errors along the way.
Now to watch what Brem did.😊
Very nice puzzle btw.
Oh wow, I LOVED this one! What an amazing flow throughout, lovely deductions to make all through the puzzle! Was able to finish in just 8:55 (conflict checker off), major props to FullDeck and Missing a Few Cards for this puzzle!
@@praematura so glad you enjoyed it :)
at 20:30 I love the complicated logic of why it couldn't be 6 because of where the 4 would be rather than the 6 already in column. :)
Done in exact 10 mins...
20.49 for me. I love the fog.
11:20, freaking coooool !!
Fascenating puzzle, even if it required an explanation of the rule to figure out what the rule actually meant.
21:43 for me
nice puzzle
great fun. Go FOG go...
I did not get the pointing rule so I had to watch your solve, and I still dont understand how that rule is valid. It points to a different thermo, which is not how the rules read to me. What did I miss?
I struggled a bit too but it clicked when I realised it doesn't mean it points at its OWN bulb but rather at the same DIGIT that is in its own bulb
I like fog puzzles but for the life of me I don't understand this digit in the bulb. Perhaps I'm thick but please someone explain it a different way.
Look Up on "sling shot" Puzzles, Same principle, but easier to understand, as it dosnt have the Thermo element...
There are examples on the Channel
@@EH-kp5wf Hi, thank you but just before 4 this morning I woke for a pee and realised how dumb I was. X is only telling me where the same digit is that will be in the bulb, but not where the bulb is.
god
You have done this puzzle before you streamed it. I can tell by how you kept on highlighting between box 8 and 7. They could have been separate thermo's but you never once took that into account.
This was a blind solve. I don’t always do blind solves, but I generally call out when I have solved a puzzle before, like in all the pack videos.
If you don’t like the content, you are welcome to check out some of the other channels that provide sudoku content.
Update: I was just rewatching (I recorded this about a week ago), at 16:20 I commented that I didn't think the thermos could be connected, and a couple of minutes before that I was looking at how the thermo in box 8 would work if the bulb was closer to box 9.
I assume you just skipped most of the video.
2:25 I am a bit disappointed in you from for doing this rant. A strategy that breaks a game by making it to easy should never be framed as "cheating" but as a problem with the gamedesigne. As someone who comes form board gaming I would have expected you to stick to that philosophy.
Does not change the fact that you are completely wrong. The rules state that no guessing is required, there is no game in the world that can read your mind.
Of course, no one can prevent you from cheating at solitaire by looking at the cards coming up (unless you play on a computer), but where is the fun and challenge in that?
I would definitely not want to play board games with someone that has such a lax view on cheating and breaking the rules.
Now _that_ is a rant.
So choosing to not follow the rules is not cheating, but a weakness in the game design?
The rules say no guessing.
I'd expect someone who comes from board gaming to know that every game depends on voluntary acceptance of the rules.
