Circle Squared

(Published on 2. January 2024, 03:27 by Ridhwan)

So, I just posted a new video explaining how to solve "Little Killer Around You". If you are interested, link is as follows:

Now, back to this puzzle. So, I had a crazy idea for a puzzle that uses the same ruleset twice, which is the circle ruleset. Basically, there are two circle ruleset in the same grid.

Rules:

1. Normal sudoku rules apply.

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

3. A circled digit indicates exactly how many circles contain that digit.

4. A squared digit indicates exactly how many squares contain that digit.

Do have a go!

Fantastic puzzle, and not too brutal once you get the hang of it. Thanks, @ Ridhwan :).
