Pêcher pour pêches (Killer Sudoku with Same Size Same Sum)

(Published on 27. April 2024, 23:58 by purpl)

I have reworked several versions of this puzzle that I liked or did not like for various reasons. I have finally landed on something which doesn't have anything I don't like. However, I do greatly miss some deductions which have been discarded through this process. Enjoy it for there have been sacrifices made for its creation!

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Digits cannot repeat within a cage.

Cages of the same size must have the same sum distinct from cages of other sizes.

Solution code: Row 7 followed by column 9 (left to right, top to bottom, no spaces, 18 digits).

Tough one, but it yields a tiny bit of information each time one squeezes it hard enough. :)

A very clever and (for me) very challenging sequence of deductions!
