beautiful sudoku! especially puzzle 3 -- that one was a absolute joy to reason through, literally not letting up until the last few digits :)

Difficulty is 1 star for #1, #2, #4, 3 stars for #3 I'd say. Loved it though thanks!

completely at a loss on puzzle 3 :(
EDIT: WOW!! after 97 minutes I finally solved it. i got caught up in bifurcation and was disillusioned to the actual logic of what needed to happen on the line. Beautiful!

three was the easiest...to mess up on :)
it's logic wasn't too hard though, and I just needed to proceed cautiously. fun pack. it was nice that there was a little tougher surprise in there.

Thanks everyone! I expected #3 to stand out and you proved me right! Looking at the SudokuPad solve counts, I think it would have been better to put #3 in a different pack. I'll be more thoughtful about that in the future.

The 3rd puzzle was chief's kiss, I really enjoyed that little challenge! Loved how the rules kept coming back to disambiguate things.

Me too. Number 3 was the highlight of the four interesting puzzles. Thank you so much for sharing these.

Same with me. For puzzle 3 I needed almost as long as for the other three together.
All of them are really fun! Thanks for sharing!

A great collections of 6x6s! I agree that puzzle 3 was the trickiest out of the set, as it required really thinking about how the lines needed to work.

I have a suspicion I missed something in puzzle 3 because it was a real head-scratcher compared to the other three (all the more excellent for it in the end though!). These are excellent 6x6 puzzles, I enjoyed them a lot.
