- Normal Sudoku and Cage rules apply.
- Copycat Cages: The digits will appear in the maroon cages in the same order or in a reversed order as the other cages with the same total and size.

I didn't quite understand the copycat restriction, so I startet solving like I would a normal cages puzzle and see how far I would get. Turns out I solved the whole thing on a logical path in 12 minutes without ever using the copycat. So why introduce a concept which is completely superfluous when you've got a beautiful puzzle without it?

I only used the cage totals at the end.

All y'all complaining about the puzzle being too easy....Hey, what's too easy for you might be a good challenge for someone else (like me!). You guys have hundreds and hundreds of harder puzzles on this site. Let us novices have an easy puzzle every now and then. Thanks KebbieG.

I found I didn't need to use the cage totals hardly at all, just the fact that they were copies was almost enough.

2:14. It's a nice idea, but you should leave some wiggle room, make the solver think. This could probably be quite interesting without given digits.

3:12, very satisfying solve 8)

If anything, I was overwhelmed with too many clues. I liked it, but I kept forgetting these were cages with sums because there was so much information available I didn’t need the sums for much of the solve.

Update Pad link to have the size rule.

Agree with others, definitely misrated difficulty, nice and simple

This is a very nice approachable puzzle.
The difficulty is GAS level, definitely not a 3*.
