Mystery Prime Cages 6x6
(Published on 22. May 2024, 20:26 by Qodec)
This puzzle was directly inspired by Shintaro Fushida-Hardy's beautiful little masterpiece that appeared on Cracking the Cryptic 10 days ago. If you trust me, the YouTube video ID is ifaqLKkrXLc, and if you don't, the video's title is "Reddit Recommended This Puzzle..."
- Latin square: Each row and column contains the digits from 1 to 6 once each.
- Mystery prime cages: An area surrounded by a dashed line is a cage. The digits in each cage sum to a prime number, but no two cages sum to the same prime. Digits in a cage MAY repeat.

A prime quality 6x6, and I expect nothing less from a genius like Qodec.
