Shocked Luigi (Pointing Arrows Sudoku)

(Eingestellt am 21. Juni 2022, 23:29 Uhr von purpl)

Today we have one of my favorite variants on arrow sudoku, pointing arrows! I first learned about this wonderful idea from Mr.Menace in his puzzle called "This way please." Since then I have made several puzzles with this ruleset, the only one on LMD is Bacteria in my Least Loved Arrows series. Hope you enjoy this puzzle that sort of looks like a shocked Luigi face.

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Digits along an arrows sum to the digit in that arrow's circle, digits may repeat along arrows.

Additionally, each arrow tip points in the direction of an instance of the circled digit. For example, r2c2 circled digit has an arrow tip which points at r3c5, r4c6, r5c7, r6c8, and r7c9 meaning one of these cells must contain the digit placed in r2c2.

I usually don't enjoy arrow constraints that much, but with the added pointing constraint it was a lot of fun! Great puzzle with a pleasant solve path :)

I filled about a third of the grid, and I'm completely stuck. Not sure how to proceed, I must be missing something...

purpl/Memeristor: There's only two things I can really suggest without giving away too much to other solvers. Make sure you have applied the extra pointing rule to every arrow (easy to forget) and don't focus too much on arrow combinations or every single possibility. The arrows will become clear as you continue sudoku. Hope that helps :) if not feel free to send me a message on Discord purpl#3517.

purpl/Memeristor: well would you look at that! See this is why I try to write in where I saw it so that we can have a paper trail :) to give credit.

******Just remind, "Pointing Arrow Sudoku" may appear earlier in the LMD portal.
