Cavalry Archer (Anti-Knight Arrow Sudoku)
(Published on 2. June 2021, 21:09 by Phistomefel)
The usual sudoku rules apply. Additionally, cells that are a knight's move away from each other, may not contain the same digit. The digits on an arrow sum up to the number in the associated circle. Along an arrow digits may repeat, as long as it does not violate any other rules.
The puzzle is also available online via F-Puzzles. Have fun solving!
Solution code: 1st row, 8th column

Wunderschönes Rätsel, bei dem ich am Anfang dachte, wie das wohl gehen soll, doch dann eröffnete sich ein wunderbar logischer Lösungsweg.

Beautiful puzzle! I'm super excited: probably my first Phistomefel solve and without watching the video! It must be a 3 stars by my standard since it "only" took me 71 minutes :) Thank you very much!

Faszinierend, wie wenig Informationen notwendig sind um eindeutige Sudokus mit so einem genialen Lösungsweg zu erstellen. Ich habe ewig gebraucht, einmal neu anfangen müssen, aber das war es wert. Danke.

Very nice, as always. This was not an easy one for me. I spent a lot of time staring at it before whittling away the possibilities. Glad to see I wasn't the only one :)

Three days later and it indeed happened: it was on CTC (cracking the cryptic) today :)

Great puzzle! Took me way too long to find the break in but once I did the logic played out really nicely.

Great puzzle. I was very glad I was able to solve it before it's inevitable debut on CTC. This felt very approachable to me, so I hope even more people decide to give it a shot.

Relatively Moderate one with lots of "Aha" moments throughout. If I want to practice Anti Knight Sudoku, all I have to do is Solve one of yours. That's how good they are. Filled with Fantastic logic and fills me with great pleasure to solve them.

Your puzzle shows a mirror image of me smiling whilst discovering the lovely logic. Thanks Phistomefel! :-)

Dear Phistomefel, nearly 4 weeks ago I began on your first puzzle published here, and worked my way up, aiming to complete all. Finally, finally, I have done so (as of date). It has been an absolute pleasure! Every puzzle was a challenge and a joy. Massive respect and many many thanks for creating them! Cheers! :)
