Arrow Knight
(Published on 31. December 2022, 11:54 by ademjaz)
This puzzle is part of a Anti-Knight puzzle series, where I combine Knight's move with some other rule(s). So far I've done 2 puzzles :
The first one using thermometers that you can find : here
The second one using killer cages that you can find : here
This one is the third in the series, hope you enjoy it!
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Anti-Knight : Digits a chess knight's move apart cannot contain the same digit.
Arrows : Digits along an arrow sum to the digit in the attached circle.

Solution code: Column 1 followed by row 9 (18 digits, no spaces)
