Diagonal Spiral
(Published on 6. July 2022, 22:35 by antiknight)
I constructed an arrows + diagonal constraint puzzle and wanted to share it, but I was too hesitant since it's quite brutal ! This puzzle can be solved logically at each step without bifurcation, but it has some unusual logic after the break in. If you want a hint reply with a hidden comment and I'll be happy to help :)
Rules:
1) Normal Sudoku rules apply:
Place the digits 1-9 into each cell of the grid. None of the rows, columns or boldly outlined 3x3 boxes contain repeated digits.
2) Normal Arrows rules apply:
The digits along each arrow must sum to the digit in the circled cell. Digits may repeat along an arrow if permitted by other rules.
3) Normal Diagonal rules apply:
Digits along diagonals must not repeat.
