Yeah, when I first looked at the puzzle for some reason I thought the sum dot between R7C23 and R8C23 meant R7C3 + R8C2 = R7C2 + R8C3. But it's just the sum of the 4 digits of course.

Looks interesting. Do the dots that are 'between' 4 cells count only once or twice?

Each dot is counted only once. :-)

Looks impenetrable on the outset, but ends up only 3 difficulty for me.

Marvelous puzzle! Very tricky break-in, at least the way I did it. There must have been an easier way I guess. Thanks

Thanks for your solve...
I added a link to my solution guide in a hidden comment. :-)

Thanks for the guide! That was exactly how I did it, so there wasn't an easier way ;)
