Unique Killers

(Published on 24. February 2023, 11:50 by Yawnus)

Creating a unique sums sudoku without givens or extra clues/rules was a long-time dream for me and finally, after many failed efforts, here it is. Happy solving!

Solve at F-Puzzles or CTC (with solution check).

Walkthrough

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits cannot repeat within a cage. Each cage has a unique digit sum.

Great puzzle! Thanks for making it - that's one less idea I have to try and work out how to construct! And awesome to see the Octopuzzles walkthrough feature getting some more use - be sure to hit publish over there to make the puzzle visible and solveable on that site.
