(Published on 31. December 2021, 14:00 by djorr)
I've made a few thermo variants. All are standard thermo sudokus + an extra rule. Check out the others using the following link:
Thermo Variant Series puzzles
Hat tip to @Cadwah and @DiMono on CTC discord for independently thinking of this ruleset 6 months ago!
Rules: Normal sudoku rules apply. Along thermometers, digits must increase from the bulb end.
Variant: The digit in the tip of each thermo must be equal to the sum of the digits along the rest of that thermo.

So this is just thermo and arrow rules combined

That's right! My thermo variant series consists of thermo sudokus + an extra rule applied on the thermos. For example, other puzzles involve a nonconsecutive rule, palindrome rule, fortress rule, "same sum" rule, clone rule, or something different entirely. This one uses the arrow rule.
