A Puzzle Need Not Be Difficult To Be Awesome!
1,640*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
Another brilliant and (almost?) approachable sudoku today, this time from kuraban in the form of Pincer. This one is simply a joy to solve from start to finish. We're massive fans of so-called easier puzzles where there is still a beauty and wit to the logic - we're pretty confident that EVERYONE will enjoy it!
Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/FBFJ4jMdQd
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Along thermometers, digits must increase from the bulb end. Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in that arrow's circle. The purple line contains a set of consecutive digits. Digits may not repeat along the marked diagonal.
