Miniature snake nest
(Published on 16. June 2023, 18:17 by The Book Wyrm)
Rules:
- Snake Nest: Draw 6 snakes in the grid. Each snake is a 4 long string of orthogonally connected cells that does not branch or touch itself orthogonally. Place a digit in every snake cell so that every row, column and snake contains the digits 1-4. Non-snake cells do not contain digits.
- Arrows: Cells along an arrow sum to the digit in the circle, if given. Not every cell on an arrow must contain a digit. If the circle does not contain a digit, then the arrow sums to 0 (i.e. none of the cells on the arrow contain digits).

As a beginner it's hard have that brainstreching different arrow rules, that I just got used to.
Enjoyed the puzzle very much.

Very cool ruleset that I wasn’t familiar with. Would love to see more snake nests!
