One Of The Greatest Sudoku Clues!
*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
Florian Wortmann returns to the channel today with a wonderful and (nearly!) approachable sudoku called Colorado 8. This is definitely an opportunity to dust off the old colouring pencils and features one of the great final "clues" of all time!

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells connected by an X contain digits summing to 10. Cells connected by a V contain digits summing to 5. Not all possible Xs and Vs are given. The clue outside the grid gives the sum of the first X cells in the corresponding column, where X is the digit in the cell nearest to the clue.
*** NEW SUDOKU HUNT JUST OUT ***
A new sudoku hunt, The Planets Suite, was released on 1 June at 4pm UK time on Patreon. It's one of our own and is slightly easier this month. The solution videos for DiMono's Jewels Of Osiris hunt last month are also now available.
Join us on Patreon for as little as $2 a month to play.
