Hot Zone (Region Sum, Killer cages)
(Published on 27. April 2025, 07:48 by fractalJim)
Please let me know what you think of the puzzle in the comments below! Hope you enjoy.
Normal Sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1 to 9 once each in each row, column, and box.
Box borders divide lines into segments with equal sums. The sum for different lines can be different.
Digits in cages sum to the total in the top left hand corner if given. If no total is given, cages sum to the segment sum of the region sum line going through them.
Solution code: Enter the digits in row 4 of the puzzle from left to right.
