Merry Woofy Christmas (Nala’s Advent(ures) Calendar 2023
(Published on 24. December 2023, 13:27 by SandraNala)
“Merry Woofy Christmas“
It’s Christmas Eve and we are happy that there are still some gifts left that Santa could put under the Christmas tree! Most of them say „Nala“ written on it and that’s how she loves her Christmas. But what more could she possibly get? Hasn’t she basically eaten all the treats and ripped apart the duck plushie already?
Normal Sudoku rules apply: Place the digits 1-9 in every row, column and box exactly once each.
Every digit that appears in a circle must also appear in at least one of its 4 surrounding cells.
If an arrow is present in a cell, the digit in the cell the arrow comes from appears in the grid in the direction of the arrow at a distance of N cells, where N is the digit in the arrow's cell. (Not all arrows are necessarily given - there is no negative constraint.)
Example: If R2C9 had an arrow coming from R1C9 that was pointing to the left with a 5 placed on that arrow and the digit above that arrow (R1C9) was a 6, then another 6 would be placed in R2C4.
Additionally the grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells, possibly revealing more clues.

Solution code: Digits from column 1 (top to bottom):

How does this have 2,500+ solves on the CTC app and only about 225 solves here on LMG? It's a Christmas conundrum ;-)
Lovely puzzle, thank you for setting it.
