Focus on Symmetry 2

(Published yesterday, 20:17 by Mad-Tyas)

I made a second attempt at creating a puzzle with a fully symmetrical design and position-dependent modifiers. This is the result.

Rules:

Sudoku: Fill every row, column and marked 3x3 box with the digits 1-9.

Focus Cells: There are nine Focus Cells in the grid, one in each row, column and marked 3x3 box. The Focus Cells must contain a complete set of the digits 1-9. The value of a Focus Cell is the sum of the row number and the column number of the cell. For example: If r4c8 is a Focus Cell it's value would be 12.

Region Sum Lines: On blue lines values must have an equal sum N within each 3x3 box it passes through. N may be different for different lines.

Have fun solving!

Very fun and absolutely beautiful. I love symmetrical puzzles! Too bad they can be such a pain to set, but when they work out they are so amazing it makes it all worth it. Kudos!

Incredibly cool and well crafted puzzle, certainly my new favorite puzzle of yours! The focus cells were so well utilized in this one and the grid being entirely symmetrical too was really impressive there x)

This is one of the very few times that I wish there was a category to choose above 'very nice'. Such a wonderful puzzle, the logic is just as beautiful as the perfectly symmetric grid. Thorougly enjoyed this one, compliments on the excellent setting!
