Jellyfish...Meh... What Is Sudoku's Rainbow Trout?!
*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
Michael Lefkowitz continues his incredible run of highly original (and often beautiful-looking) sudokus with Rainbow Treat, an approachable and wonderful idea based on the gaps between digits. This may not be the hardest puzzle we've ever featured but don't be fooled into thinking it hasn't got some stellar logic in it!
Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Adjacent digits on a grey line (including the hook) differ by exactly N, where N is the digit on the corresponding fish.

We're delighted to share with you a brand new sudoku hunt themed around The Lord Of The Rings by Blobz. This is one of the most incredible rewards we've ever had the chance to showcase and even features the art of Ted Nasmith, one of the world's premier Tolkien illustrators.
