This is my first region sums puzzle. I hope you enjoy!
I've noticed the puzzles I spend the most time and effort on and end up liking the best, often get way fewer solves than ones I quickly put together and/or like less. That may have something to do with difficulty, but I sure hope it changes...
If you like this puzzle, you might also like this one:
N-lines
Solves, comments and ratings (on any of my puzzles) are highly appreciated!
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
The digits on each region sum line have an equal sum within each box it passes through.
Along thermometers digits strictly increase from the bulb.
Lösungscode: row 1, row 7

This was such a good puzzle.
Had so many moments where I was thinking like "surely this deduction can't work" only to find it progressing the puzzle another step forward.
Very rewarding to have these mini victories throughout the puzzle. Also always appreciate a puzzle that doesn't just give in after the couple of first ahaa moments.

This is the kind of puzzle that forces me to bookmark the authors URL on LMD. Absolutely brilliant and such elegantly set. Thank you so so much for this puzzle.
--Thanks! I'd greatly appreciate it if you tried solving some of my puzzles which still don't have a rating. :)

Beautiful puzzle - wonderful logic in a precise set-up. Not too hard, I thought, but cracking good.

It's very rare to come across a perfect sudoku. It may have just been perfect for my mood right now, but this was absolutely beautiful. All the symmetries balanced in just the right way, never grindy. Until the very end, no cascading, but no stalls. Just a perfect balance of paced satisfaction.

when I can figure out your puzzles, I always find i like the way you have set them up and how they poetically and harmoniously resolve. This one is also so richly harmonic
--Thank you!

I can't really judge how difficult this puzzle is because I am shamefully unfamiliar with region sum lines. I found it quite tricky but enjoyed it a lot. Thanks.
--Thank you for solving!
