Clone Squares
(Published on 15. November 2023, 14:53 by Scojo)
Rules:
- Irregular Sudoku: Place the digits 1-9 once each in every row, column, and outlined region.
- Clone Squares: There are three sets of clones in the grid, the locations of which must be determined. Each clone is a 3x3 square, and each set consists of three clones. Clones within the same set must contain identical digits in exactly the same positions. Rotations and reflections are not allowed. Clones do not overlap with other clones.

I don’t understand the rules. Can someone clarify?

https://sudokupad.app/qa4oivchpz Here is an example. Note how each color has an identical arrangement of digits for each square of that color and that digits can repeat within a clone square. This might be a different arrangement of the clones than the actual puzzle. How those clones are arranged is part of what you'll have to figure out.
