Killer X Sudoku - XXL cages
(Published on 24. May 2020, 10:12 by Phistomefel)
The usual sudoku rules apply. Additionally, every digit from1 to 9 appears exactly once on the two main diagonals. An area surrounded by a dashed line is called a cage. Digits may not repeat within a cage. A number in the upper left corner of a cage indicates the sum of the digits within the cage.
The puzzle is also available online via f-puzzles. Have fun solving!
Solution code: 3rd row and 3rd column

I loved it. My first Phistomefel puzzle I solved without help :D and I found it surprisingly approachable. I created a ctc link in case anyone comes across this and would like one. https://tinyurl.com/7jw6b9r2

This is by far, hands down, one hundred percent my favorite puzzle ever. I could literally stop solving puzzles now and be happy forever (but I won't because I'm trying to solve every Phistomefel puzzle on LMG)
Seriously. Amazing.

Loved how Simon didnt see the remaining pairs at the end and thought looking at diagonals before completing the pencilmark.... just a joke if you see that Simon you are a really strong and clever solver no doubt about it :)

Really sweet puzzle, as always! Bit surprised by the difficulty, however. I found this far easier than your other puzzles.

Once again a Phistomefel classic, truly a puzzle of beauty.

Yes, @Dr. Selver the website I use is called "Penpa-Edit". I saw it on Reddit and it's worked perfectly for every puzzle I do. Once you learn how to add lines and do specific things, it works really well! Here's the link: https://rjrudman.github.io/penpa-edit/

Schön, aber jetzt ist mir ein bißchen schwindlig! ;-)

I would give my left hand if I could put my name (as the constructor) under this one. I seriously doubt I'll ever see a more impressive puzzle.

@Dr. Selver the puzzles get solved 'offline' either with pencil and paper or via some web interface of your choosing. Then you enter the solution code as instructed. Some setters may provide a link to an interface, but most do not. Welcome to the site!
