Anti-Knight, Arrows, And Unknown (But Equal) Cage Sums
(Published on 1. December 2022, 13:20 by Jeet Sampat)
What's The Sum?
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Cells separated by a knight's move (in Chess) must contain different digits.
On arrows, digits sum to the number in the corresponding circle.
Digits in a cage sum to the same number for every cage, which is to be determined by the solver.
Try it on the CTC app or on f-puzzles.
Puzzle:
Solution code: Row 8 (left to right) and column 8 (top to bottom); 18 digits, no spaces.

That was a really nice colouring puzzle. I liked the disambiguation method, it felt so weird and a little bit magical. Thank you!

The ending was really difficult, but the colouring part was not easy AT ALL. It was a real joy to solve the puzzle.

very nice. I probably was thinking too complicated but I would have been lost without the letter tool
