Frog in the Pot (Arrow)
(Published on 21. August 2023, 07:22 by zegres)
Here is an arrow puzzle I set while working on a new ruleset.
Should be enjoyable and not too hard.
Special thanks to all the testers!
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku Rules Apply.
- Digits along an arrow can repeat, sum to its circled digit.
If you don't have fun, please let me know why so I can improve as a setter.
Solution code: Row 7 (9 digits no spaces)

Very enjoyable puzzle, thank you zegres!
Might have gotten lucky with where I looked at first, but I feel like the break in wasn't too hard. While I think 2/5 feels accurate, it seems that on this site 2/5 are usually harder than this.

Once the later part of the break-in hits you, it just unfolds beautifully. Very clean arrow puzzle!

Brilliant pure arrow puzzle! Although I think 2/5 difficulty is a bit underrated...

Reply: yeah I think it’s a bit hard for a 2/5, a bit easy for a 3/5.
I though 2/5 was fair since there is only one hard deduction.
I feel like break in can always be a bit harder than the rest of the puzzle.

A good puzzle for my simple mind. I TRY to employ the complicated techniques of Simon-and-Mark and ... I just can never do it right lol. So yeah, this was fun.
