Sum-Skyscraper 5×5 puzzleI made this puzzle just before Christmas, and it’s been waiting on my desktop to be posted here ever since! Well, now it finally has been.
This is a Sum Skyscraper. Place the digits 1 to 5 once each into every row and column in the grid. Numbers outside the grid provide More >

Following-up yesterday’s Skyscraper puzzles, I thought I’d post a couple of Sum Skyscraper variant puzzles.
Sum Skyscraper 6×6 puzzle
Sum Skyscraper 5×5 puzzle
Sum Skyscraper puzzles are very similar to Skyscraper puzzles, so no number can repeat in any row or column and external ’skyscraper’ clues reveal information about the numbers in the main grid. In 5×5 puzzles More >

I haven’t posted here for a while, but to celebrate the advent of reduced-clue skyscraper puzzles on PuzzleMix.com earlier today I thought I’d post a few Skyscraper puzzles here.
Skyscraper 5×5 2 puzzle

Consecutive Skyscraper puzzle
It’s been a while since I posted a new puzzle here, what with all the excitement about Sudoku Xtra magazine, so I thought I had better do something about that right now! So to that end, here’s something a little bit unusual – a Consecutive Skyscraper puzzle.
Now Consecutive Skyscraper may sound like a More >

Skyscraper Sudoku 8×8 puzzle
Continuing my series of 8×8 Skyscrapers and variants, here’s an 8×8 Sudoku with Skyscraper clues around the edge.
The rules are simple:
Place 1 to 8 in each row, column and 4×2 box
Obey the Skyscraper constraints: each number outside the grid reveals the number of ‘visible’ digits looking along that row/column, where higher digits More >

Consecutive Skyscraper 8×8 puzzle
Here’s a combination I haven’t posted before – a standard skyscraper puzzle with the addition of consecutive markers between adjacent squares. This allows the creation of an 8×8 puzzle without needing to also add Sudoku boxes.
The rules are as follows:
Place 1-8 in each row and column
Numbers outside the grid reveal the number More >
SSSS: Skyscraper Shuriken Samurai Sudoku

Skyscraper Shuriken Samurai Sudoku puzzle
I’m glad yesterday’s Shuriken Samurai went down well, so today I’ve upgraded it to a Skyscraper puzzle (following Christine’s request for more Skyscrapers!). This is, I think it’s fair to say, quite a bit harder than the basic Samurai yesterday was – but then any puzzle with a title this hard More >

Wrap-around Consecutive 3-grid 6×6 Samurai Skyscraper puzzle
Another mouthful of a puzzle name, but in essence simply a development of the previous puzzle I posted. This time we still have the wrap-around consecutive-ness, but I’ve extended it to a samurai puzzle and added in skyscraper clues. To keep it reasonable, I’ve reduced the underylying Sudoku size More >

Skyscraper Sudoku puzzle
It occurs to me that I didn’t get round to posting any ’straightforward’ Skyscraper Sudoku puzzles previously, so I thought I’d rectify that today. Attached is a regular 9×9 Sudoku with the addition of Skyscraper clues around the edge, and no other twists!
For the Skyscraper clues the numbers around the edge represent the More >

Skyscraper 7×7 puzzleSkyscraper 5×5 puzzle
It occurs to me that I haven’t yet posted a regular, vanilla Skyscraper puzzle, so I decided that today was the day to rectify that! The 5×5 puzzle attached is pretty easy – it can be solved in under a minute if you’re on your toes! The 7×7 is nowhere near More >
