PUZZLE
RULES
Sudoku: Normal Sudoku rules apply; place the digits 1-9 once in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
Mirror Cells: There exist 9 Mirror Cells in the grid such that there is exactly one Mirror Cell in each row, column, and 3x3 box. Digits of Mirror Cells do not repeat. The value of a Mirror Cell N is equal to (10 - N). It is up to the solver to determine the position of each Mirror Cell.
Hit Points: Clues outside the grid represent the sum of all cells that contain a value equal to the distance from that clue in the direction indicated by the arrow. Grid borders extend the sight line of the clues at a 90° angle. For example, a value of 4 in r6c2 would count towards the 45 clue.
