Cagey Boxes
(Published on 4. December 2022, 12:43 by NurglesGift)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits within a cage can not repeat and must sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage.
Digits on a thermometer must increase from the bulb.
Digits that have an arrow pointing at them, must sum to the number on the arrow.
Digits on the diagonal lines can not repeat
Solution code: Give the digits of row 8 and 9

That 37 diagonal ended up being more beneficial than I expected! Well done :)
My only issue is that the rule about the arrow is a bit vaguely phrased. Thankfully I was able to deduce what was meant from context clues and past puzzles! :D Definitely still enjoyed the solve
Also, for those who like having the victory message at the end, here's a version of the link but with solution checking available:

Thank you, Must say I find it hard to judge if it's 2-3*, but settled for 2* since once you find the trick it's pretty easy from there :)

Nice puzzle; I found the mid-solve harder than the break-in but not too hard for a 2* :)

Thank you for the nice puzzle, NurglesGift! The interaction of the killer cages with the normal Sudoku regions was quite tricky to figure out. The solve was great fun!
