Blast Off (Region Sum Killer Diagonal)

(Published on 9. June 2023, 20:18 by tallcat)

As often happens for me, the start of this puzzle had been in my mind for a while but I was unsure how to develop it. When I finally turned my full attention to it, I was quite pleased with what I got to work. Happy Solving!

Normal Sudoku rules apply

Region Sum Lines: For each line, digits on the line have an equal sum N within each box it passes through. Different lines may have different sums.

Killer: Digits in cages may not repeat and must sum to the given total in the top left corner.

Diagonal: The digits 1-9 must appear on the negative diagonal





Can be played online at f-puzzles or Sudokupad

Solution code: Column 5 (top to bottom) followed by row 2 (left to right). 18 digits, no spaces

A very very intricate puzzle. Break in was cool and flowed smoothly later when very subtle pieces of logic could be found after staring for long at the grid. Thanks for sharing.

Plenty of fun and interesting interactions throughout! Quite slow at some points but I was glad at I got the low-hanging fruits early enough :)
