(Published on 24. November 2021, 23:53 by Niverio)
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Minesweeper rules:
- Some of the digits 1-9 are "mine" digits. All instances of the same digit will have the same property. Which digits are mines is to be determined by the solver.
- Circled cells show how many of the 8 surrounding cells contain mines. Circled cell itself is excluded from this count. Mine digits can also appear in circles.
- All circles are given.

Dug up this old minesweeping puzzle and love it !
Forgot about the negative constraint until I got stuck in the end, then read the rules again, then hit the detonator and blowed up this grid !

What an incredible and challenging puzzle! It really broke me at one point but once I got the initial opening, the puzzle became a whole journey of beautiful logics, especially that ending. ;)

That was great! Very unusual logic that took me a while to wrap my head around, but it was quite satisfying.
