I love XV and really enjoyed this.
Find that using letter pairs that correspond to sums of 5 and 10s respectively avoid a lot of colouring.
No missing "V" for me! ;-)

Really nice puzzle. One trick to staying organized is to use both letters and colors. Use ABCD for the low digits and EFGH for the corresponding high digits. Use a different color for each of AE, BF, CG, and DH. Then, this puzzle is fairly straightforward and fun without any complicated logic.

Not too easy or too difficult sudoku. And i agree with author as there is possible to get into unique solution with given hints. for me Row 9 column 6 and 7 sum to 7 not 5 so there isnt missing V.

I am 100% sure there is no missing V as f-puzzle would tell me..
but I do know you can change some cells around and still get the right solution code but wont follow all constrictions.. as in giving you an extra V in this case

Nice puzzle. There were two solutions for me. Also, there was a "V" missing in R9 C6-7.

This might be the longest I've ever spent on a puzzle and I almost quit a couple times because I just couldn't see my next move... So glad I stuck it out and finished!
I do wish more puzzles were submitted with solutions, just so you can check yourself occasionally to make sure you haven't gone down a wrong path. Thankfully, I somehow managed to keep my coloring organized the entire time.
