Bonus Edition: Rise Up (Killer + Arrow)
(Published on 12. February 2025, 03:00 by Playmaker6174)
In a sense, this has many resemblances to my older puzzle High Impact in terms of setting.
I initially put this one as around 2.5 - 3 stars difficulty range and from what I saw, this one should remain approachable throughout the solve here. I hope you enjoy the puzzle! :)
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply: every row, column and 3x3 box contains digits from 1 to 9 each once.
- Within a cage, digits don't repeat and they sum to the small number written at the top left of that cage.
- Digits along an arrow sum to the digit in the circle cell attached to that arrow. Digits can repeat along an arrow if allowed by other rules.
Puzzle: F-puzzle - Penpa plus - Sudokupad
Good luck and have fun solving!
Solution code: Enter row 2 from left to right, 9 digits long

I saw this on James' site a little while ago and cleared out the solution just to solve it again. Very clean setting. Thanks for sharing.

I usually do not enjoy Killer Sudokus that much, but this one flowed nicely and was suprisingly fun!

To me it felt easier than 2*. Loved it very much. Thank you!

Really great puzzle with satisfying deductions! I think 2.5* is fair, as the logic felt easily doable, but not obvious.
