Battle With The Archers - The 14th Target: Archer's Illusion

(Published on 2. September 2021, 16:13 by Playmaker6174)

This is the 14th puzzle of my Battle With The Archers collection and it's also a special version of the series. The puzzle is basically a combination of some of the best things from previous puzzles so without doubt this is one of my favorite as well. The main structure actually came out as an accident as I went through some of my solved puzzles and played with them again, which eventually led to this intriguing puzzle after several nights.

I think it's quite approachable and it doesn't require many advanced techniques, but still the difficulty should be in range 3.5-4 since there're many things happening in there, so enjoy the ride!

Also check out the previous puzzles from the collection, some of it will give you really fun and enjoyable experiences :}




Rules:

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in the circle cell attached to that arrow.
To clarify more: r7c3 and r7c7 both have 3-cell arrow and r8c5 and r9c5 are the common cells of both arrows, r7c3 and r7c7 also both have 2-cell arrow with r5c5 being the common tip; arrow from r3c5 is 3 cells long and it goes straight.
