Crossroads

This puzzle was made for an impersonation competition. I was tasked with impersonating MSDOS (Matt Tressel). I hope you enjoy the puzzle!

Rules:
  • Normal Sudoku rules apply.
  • Entropy lines: Each set of 3 adjacent digits on a peach entropy line must contain a low digit {1,2,3}, a middle digit {4,5,6}, and a high digit {7,8,9}.
  • Arrows: Digits along an arrow line must sum to the digit in the attached circle.

Solution code: Row 1

Lovely stuff. Just chipping away until I got my first, quite surprising, digits. Then a funky resolution to end.

Yay I got to use my crayons. Awesome puzzle!

I especially liked that tougher bit right at the end (or maybe I missed something simpler).
