Daily Kendoku (CanCan, SquareWisdom) #4

After a few Kendoku variants thay I’ve posted in the last 7 days, today I post my first classic Kendoku puzzle. However, it does have one special property – see if you can find what it is. Again, there are two versions of the same puzzle: an easier one with all operators filled in and a more difficult one with very few operators. Choose the one you prefer.

    Hello, can you please tell me if numbers can be repeated in the cages in this version?
    Thanks a lot!

    Yes, Sophia, repeats are allowed.

    Done it (from the reduced operators version), but can’t see any special property?

    No 9s!

    There are no 9s, that’s true, but that’s because it’s a 8×8 puzzle…

    You must always use only numbers from 1 to the size of that puzzle.

    So that’s not it. It does have one interesting property, though.

    I thought that was a bit obvious, so back to the drawing board! Thanks for changing the division symbol.

    I can’t see any particularly interesting property other than the “cages” being 180 degree symmetrical.

    Is the property about the solution cell values or the cages? 😕

    Ok, it’s nothing very smart, it’s just that there are no additions in this puzzle.

    It’s actually quite special, that it was the complete opposite to traditional killer puzzles. 🙂

    However, I spent a lot of time looking for properties about the actual cell values (e.g. NC, X, DG). 🙁
