Killer Clones
(Published on 5. September 2020, 11:12 by Joseph nehme)
Rules:
- Normal Standard Sudoku rules apply.
- Outlined regions are cages. The sum of digits in a cage is given in the top-left and digits cannot repeat.
- The clue outside the grid is a little killer clue. It represents the sum of all digits along the diagonal. Digits may repeat on the diagonal.
- The gray regions are clones. The digits on clones must be the same on their representative positions.
- The green region forms a 3x3 magic square. The sum of the rows, columns and diagonals in a magic square is the same.
- Digits along thermometers strictly increase from bulb to end.
