Knight Shift
(Published yesterday, 20:00 by ThePedallingPianist)
This is my response to Scojo's setting prompt for the week, as redeemed by LMDemasi, which was to make an "approachable doppelgänger". My first draft ended up being a little too difficult, but rather than adding clues to make that easier and take away some of its interesting steps, I just did what any sane setter would do and made a whole new puzzle over some lunch.
DOPPELGÄNGER:
• Fill each cell of the main grid such that every row, column and box contains a 0 and five different digits from 1-6;
• No two rows, no two columns and no two boxes may be missing the same digit;
• For each 0 in the grid, the digits missing in its row, column and box must be three different digits;
• Fill the external cells with the missing digit from the corresponding row, column or box.
ANTIKNIGHT:
• Cells separated by a Knight's move (in Chess) cannot contain the same digit.

This was my first doppelgänger puzzle so it took a couple restarts to really work out the logic, but what fun once I got the hang of things!
