Ambiguity 2
(Published on 13. April 2021, 02:44 by zetamath)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits cannot repeat within cages, but may repeat within a diagonal with an arrow (all as usual).
A small number in the upper left of a cage denotes one of two things:
A) The digits in that cage sum to that number OR B) The digits of that number each appear within the cage.
A "little killer" arrow on a diagonal also indicates one of two things:
A) The digits on that diagonal sum to that number OR B) The digits of that number each appear on the diagonal.
The ORs above are exclusive, so for example a 12 cage always contains a 1 and a 2 or sums to 12, but never both simultaneously.

Very enjoyable puzzle, quite knotty in places but a very satisfying solve with rather a novel ruleset.

Took me a while to grasp the concept but after that it was a really enjoyable puzzle. :) I'm not sure if I followed your intended way though because I didn't use the 29 little killer clue.

That was fun to solve! Good puzzle, but it can‘t match your magnificent Ambiguity1.

Wonderful logic. Loved it! The break-in is very beautiful, and the puzzle keeps giving after that, right until the end.
