King of Argyle Sudoku

Sudoku Anti-King Argyle 9×9 1 puzzleSometimes it’s fun to mix variations together, so here’s a combination of Anti-king and Argyle Sudoku.

Anti-king means that no number repeats a “king’s move away in chess”. In practice this means that no two identical numbers touch in any direction, including diagonally.

Argyle means that no number repeats on any marked diagonal. The diagonals form an ‘Argyle’ Scots tartan pattern.

And since it’s a Sudoku, you must also place 1 to 9 in each row, column and bold-lined 3×3 box.

Good luck!

You can now also keep track of this and future puzzles I publish using The Griddle’s puzzle tracking system. The following buttons update the status of the puzzle:
