Can You Explain This Puzzle's Symmetry?
1,462*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
Today's puzzle is by Jeet Sampat and, at first glance, it looks crazy. How could such a symmetrical grid have a unique solution? Well, the constructor has worked some magic here because this is REALLY clever. Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/JmJmTrt6T4
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells separated by a black dot must contain digits in a 1:2 ratio (ie one digit will be double the other). Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in that arrow's circle.
