Normal sudoku rules apply.

Clues outside the grid are the sums of the first 'x' digits in that row where 'x' is the digit in brackets. If a clue were to read '3(2)' then the first two digits would sum to 3.

The digits 'x' and 'y' found in the puzzle are two digits that needs to be found.

The digit 'x' has an anti-king restriction, while the digit 'y' has an anti-queen restriction. Additionally the digits 'y+1' and 'y+2' have anti-knight restrictions.

There are three thermometers. The digits along the thermometers shall increase from the bulb end.

There are two killer sudoku cages. One of them has a sum of '2x' while the other has a sum of '2x+1'. Which cage has which sum needs to be determined.

There are 5 circle pairs. They are two-digit prime numbers.

Solution code: Column 4 and 5

A bit of a shame that this has multiple solutions, since I liked the starting logic. I was very lucky to guess which was the intended solution. :-(
