The Minimum Compass
Rules:
Standard Sudoku: Place the digits 1–9 so that each row, column, and 3×3 box contains each digit exactly once.
Diagonal Sudoku: The two main diagonals also contain digits 1–9 with no repeats.
Arrows: Digits along an arrow sum to the number shown in the circled cell.
Double Arrows: The sum of the digits along the red line is equal to the sum of the digits in the circles at either end of the line.
Minimum Cells: Each purple cell is smaller than all of its orthogonally adjacent neighbors.
Thermometers: Along each thermometer, digits strictly increase from the bulb to the tip.
Happy solving!
Solution code: Enter Row 4 from left to right.

Loved the symmetry of this puzzle. The solve path isn't to hard to find and flows very nicely.

the opening is easy enough ... you can get a handful of digits and candidates, but then you hit a brick wall.
definitely not level 2
