Gordian Knot
(Published on 22. April 2024, 20:20 by FullDeck-Missing)
Little killer sums: Numbers outside the grid give the sum of the digits along the indicated diagonal. Digits may repeat along diagonals if allowed by other rules.
Note: One of the little killer clues is not needed for a unique solution but we left it in for aesthetics and to make the solve slightly more elegant.
Try the puzzle on the SudokuPad app by Sven Neumann.

Great puzzle. About a 1.5* for me. There was a lot to "untie" ;)
