Normal sudoku rules apply.
Mod 3 Arrows: A digit on an arrow indicates how many digits in the arrow’s direction have the same remainder when divided by 3, including the digit itself. (eg a 2 on an arrow means that exactly two cells in that direction—including the 2 itself—contain digits from the set {2, 5, 8}, since those digits all leave remainder 2 when divided by 3).
Summit Lines: Digits along a blue line must be ascending or descending, with 1 and 9 reversing the ascension/descension. (eg if digits along the blue line are 2-5-7-9-8-5 in that order, the sequence is ascending until the 9 causes a descension).
Antisocial Circles: Digits in a circle are not orthogonally or diagonally adjacent to any consecutive digits.

I love 'quality' arrows and I adore summit loops. Super fun (2 1/2 stars for difficulty).

Vythic: Didn't understand how editing comments worked before but always happy to see appreciation for the Summit Lines! I think they can be quite polarizing, so it's great to see the positive feedback.
