(Published on 10. May 2024, 15:57 by Oddlyeven)
Rules: Put the digits 0 to 8 once each in each row, column and box.
Doublers: One cell in every row, column and box is a doubler. This cell counts as double its value for the following rules. Each of the digits 0 to 8 appears exactly once in a doubler cell.
XV: Values on an X sum to 10. Values on a V sum to 5.
Cages: Digits in a cage may not repeat. Values in a cage sum to the total in the top-left most corner of the cage.
Fog of War: The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells.

I really liked that one. Got through it quite quick at first. But when I came to the last three columns I totally forgot about the doublers having to be unique... Took me quite a while afterwards.

I found this hard, but at least I could finish it.
It's crazy that so many of you rate is EASY.

Loved this puzzle, I don't get to solve many 2-star puzzles. But I have to say, eventhough slowly, I found the continuation always. took me 2 hours to solve though :-)
Thank you for such a beautiful puzzle!

This one was really tough for me until I realized I'd ignored the rule that each digit can be a doubler only once. I really need to remind myself to read the rules when I'm feeling stuck.

Fun puzzle. This combination of not hard, but still tricky with lots of ideas isn't something I see often. Just a good time to solve this.

Nice use of the doubler constraint in here along with some interesting deductions with the fog mechanic, mainly in certain boxes :)

Very nice FoW-puzzle with a lot of fine deductions along the solving path including a wonderful break-in. Thank you so much for setting and sharing this lovely piece.

I love doubler sudoku especially with fog, and this one is no exception!

Easy and sneaky at the same time. Great puzzle. Very fun to solve.

I realized in hindsight I got lucky: I made a deduction I had no logical right to make but it ended up being the right digit after all. I'll never know what mistake I made but I finished fair and square after that, ha ha.
