Killer Sudoku: Digits in cages must not repeat and must sum to the indicated total.

Great puzzle! It took me a little while to find the break-in but as soon as I did the logic flowed really smoothly throughout the rest.

Very nice flow. Focused on the wrong thing for the first few minutes until I realised that the break-in was way simpler and after that it just went step by step. Beautifully done.

This one has taken me many many re-visits to manage to get started, once I did it all flowed very nicely!

very straightforward. After a very easy I struggled with for hours today this was very lovely, the break in wasn't too hard to spot either.

So smooth and super fun for a beginner like me. Thanks a ton :)

Very smooth opening for me and a very satisfying back and forth between cages throughout the solve. Enjoyed it a lot!

Thank you very much for this! I really enjoyed this one. I'm no super-expert and I really appreciate ones like this.

It took me a while to get started, but that's mainly due to my inexperience. It solved very nicely, once I broke in. Well named puzzle.

I really felt like this one was gonna be too hard for me until I read some of the comments about the break-in. Glad I persevered. Wonderful setting and interactions between the cages.

What a fun little puzzle! Indeed, the hardest part was just figuring out how to get started. But once I spotted it (it only took a couple minutes of staring), I breezed through it in a very satisfying way. Thanks!

One of the most gorgeous 1-star puzzles I have ever seen. The way all the cages work with one another is chef's-kiss brilliant.
