Honeycomb sudoku. The Hive

(Published on 20. May 2022, 18:45 by Puzzle Farmer)

Introduction

This is my first puzzle so any feedback will be appreciated. I came up with this grid pattern many years ago after finding regular newspaper sudokus rather repetetive and boring. I have an irregular version as well which I will aim to upload tomorrow. Note the corner cells have been intentionally blacked out to give the grid more structure. If these cells are removed, I feel the unusual grid pattern is a little disorientating.

Rules

Essentially the same rules as a standard sudoku but in 3 directions. However unlike a standard sudoku only 5 of the rows and 60 degree diagonals contain the full set of digits 1-7. Therefore it is just a case of numbers 1-7 not repeating in each of the 3 directions or regions.
