Inspiration from zetamath's Keep Talking [And No One Explodes].
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Three digits represent mines. A number in a square is equal to the total number of mines in the 8 cells surrounding that square. A number in a circle is equal to the taxicab distance from that circle to the nearest mine. (A mine cannot be in a circle since the taxicab distance to the nearest mine would be 0)
Below is a sample 6x6 to illustrate the rules, with two digits representing mines (3 and 5).
Solution code: Enter rows 1 and 2 (left to right, no spaces,18 digits)

Very cool, brought me back to Windows 95. I appreciate the example, without which I may have erroneously assumed that a cell with a square cannot contain a mine.

Tough but fun! Felt closer to 4/5 to me. :-)
