The Aspiring Rook
(Eingestellt am 20. Mai 2025, 12:17 Uhr von Neb)
Thanks for all the kind words on my first puzzles. Given that the last one was received so well, I tried creating another one with a similar break in, but different continuation logic. I hope you enjoy!
- Normal sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1 to 9 once each in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
- Anti-Knight: Cells a chess Knight's move away from each other may not contain the same digit.
- Unique Killer Cages: Within a cage, digits don't repeat and they must sum to the small number written in the top left of that cage. Additionally no digit may be used more than once among all the cages of the same sum.

That was tough for me, the unmarked 2-cage was weird. I initially thought it added up to the same value as the single digit unmarked cage.

Had to use uniqueness, to my shame, but all is well that ends well :)
Thanks for setting!

Originally the r34c2 cage was another 10 cage, but it made the solution path more fuzzy which I didn't like. Ultimately opted to leave it in for symmetry yeah.

Awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing.

Very nice! Just wondering, was the unmarked cage that spans box 1 and 4 needed for the solve, or just to make it look nice and symmetric? :-). I didn’t use/need it anyways.

Cool puzzle.
