Mystery Sum Thermo (6x6)
(Published on 24. May 2021, 17:46 by Crystal Phoenix)
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
All cages must have the same sum, which must be deduced by the solver.
Digits along thermometers must increase from the bulb end.
NOTE: I made this puzzle (and my kropki snake puzzle) as part of a set of 6x6 puzzles to introduce new sudoku varieties to a math teacher friend who's only ever done classic sudoku puzzles. My aim was to keep them relatively easy, but still logical and fun. Enjoy!
Solution code: Row 1 followed by row 2.

Thanks for the comments, KyleBaran and rafeiro. I'm glad you liked it! I figure 6x6 puzzles aren't likely to be harder than 1 or 2 stars, since at worst you can bifurcate the solution quickly enough; not that I recommend it, as they just aren't as fun that way!

Nice and a little tricky, I really like how the sum unfolds the entire puzzle.

From the rating, I was surprised it took me 25 minutes to solve! It was very enjoyable and had some good logic. It solved very quickly once you realized the sum.
