Day1 Day2 Day3 Day4 Day5 Day6 Day7 BONUS
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
The clones from each of the previous puzzles are hidden in this grid. Every clone appears at least once, for a total of 9 hidden clones.
Each clone is an exact copy of its original; same digits and same configuration as they were in the other puzzles. Rotations and reflections are not allowed.
Clones do not overlap in this puzzle.
Set of Clones:
Puzzle:
F-Puzzle link to solve online
Clarifications:
Each of the seven puzzles contained a uniquely shaped cloned region (reminders shown above). You need to solve those puzzles to determine the digits in each clone.
Since the 9 hidden clones are a mix of the 7 shapes at least one will be used more than once, while the majority will be used exactly once. (None of the shapes are missing).
Hints:
Don't forget the extra restriction: "Clones do not overlap"
If you're struggling to get started, highlight the text below to reveal a new clue:
[Hint] After solving all 7 puzzles (and filling in the digits for each clone) examine the digits found within the 7 clones. Use the most common digit(s) to anchor each clone for this puzzle. Remember each clone is used at least once, so try to deduce where the different shapes can fit. [/Hint]
