Battle With The Archers 24: Knight's Testimony

(Published on 10. December 2021, 10:29 by Playmaker6174)

This is the 24th puzzle of my Battle With The Archers collection and the successor of the 23rd one, which is also a part of the wild Four Horsemen 21-23-24-25. Despite how clean it looks, it might be one of the most challenging puzzles that I've set so far, I hope you enjoy!

After this one there'll be a special gift for the Christmas holiday, and mini spoiler: this one will be the sequel of my previous 6x6 pack :)



Rules:

- Normal Sudoku rules apply: every row, column and 3x3 box contains digits from 1 to 9 each once.

- Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in the circle cell attached to that arrow. Digits along an arrow can repeat if allowed by other rules.

- Cells that are a Knight's move apart (in chess) mustn't contain the same digit.

Good luck and have fun solving!


(Just also realized that the portal has reached 10,000 puzzles milestone, that’s an incredible achievement and also quite chilling one too)

Solution code: Row 2 (left to right) and column 2 (downwards), 18 digits long with no space

Lovely deductions throughout. 24 complete 16 to go. Loving this series. Skipped some which are proving difficult. Getting brain back into gear after long holiday.

Such a satisfying puzzle. Great consistent difficulty throughout without ever feeling lost.

Spectacular puzzle - rock hard (for me at least), but it did gradually unveil its secrets, and a real miracle that it solves at all!

Lovely puzzle! It was an interesting start and went reasonably smoothly afterwards, thanks :-)

Very nice! I particularly enjoyed whittling down the options in the two cluttered boxes! Thanks for this :^)
