The first Version needed bifurcation to solve it, because I messed it up in the logic of the path. This Version DO NOT NEED bifurcation to solve it, only good scanning.
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- The positive diagonal must contain all of the digits 1-9.
- Outlined regions are cages. The sum of digits in a cage is given in the top-left and digits cannot repeat.
- King's move rules: Any 2 cells separated by a king's move in chess cannot contain the same digit.
Solution code: row 2

Beautiful opening sequence, but then an absolutely crazy ending, I would've never spotted those intended steps at the end even given enough time.

Punishing but beautiful. The final step was especially lovely.

The logic is smoother now, no bifurcation needed
