Rules:

Regular sudoku rules:

Place the digits 1-9 in every row, column, and box

Positive and Negative Diagonal Lines:

Place the digits 1-9 on both the main positive and negative Diagonals (The thin red lines that go from r1c1 to r9c9 and r9c1 to r1c9). Digits can not repeat on their respective diagonals.

Region Sum Lines:

Box borders divide each blue line into segments with the same sum.

White Kropki Dots:

White dots placed between two cells indicate the digits in those cells are consecutive (no negative constraint

Killer Cages:

Digits in cages must sum to the number in the upper left corner of the cage. No guessing is required to determine the value of x (x can not be a negative number as that would require the ability to insert negative digits, which you can not)

Note:

Some of the killer cage numbers are difficult to read, so below is a key you can reference that shows the killer cages number as well as the row and column numbers:

Row Column Value
1 5 x+3
1 6 5x
4 1 3x
5 1 x²-3
5 5 x
5 8 2x-1
6 7 x²+6
7 4 x+5
7 5 x²+x

Lösungscode: Column 1, read top to bottom
