Battle With The Archers 37: The Secret of Three Worlds
(Published on 28. October 2022, 08:07 by Playmaker6174)
This puzzle has what I'd definitely call one of the coolest break-ins that I've ever seen in an arrow puzzle, and just when I thought I couldn't find any more nice idea like the previous The Vow of Three Worlds in the past, this happened. Also for this one, I decided to make the solve after the opening much smoother but it shall still remain being fun and enjoyable. Estimated difficulty is about 3.5 or lower, I hope you enjoy!
(I also will leave the comments on the main idea in the hidden comment section)
(reuploaded because of some minor issues related to description of the post and the links)
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply: every row, column and 3x3 box contains digits from 1 to 9 each once.
- Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in the circle cell attached to that arrow.
Puzzle:
Good luck and have fun solving!
Solution code: Column 2 (top to bottom) and column 8 (top to bottom), 18 digits long with no space

Enjoyable...I might have missed something on the break-in because I found it more than 3 stars difficult. Thanks!
