Psycho Killer 02 - Solving My Own Sudoku
This is my solve path for my "Psycho Killer 02" sudoku, the first puzzle I ever set.
This was the puzzle I created that introduced the Psycho Killer ruleset, which has featured in a few puzzles by a few different setters now.
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- There are cages in the grid. Numbers cannot repeat within cages.
- Black cages are normal killer cages. The digits in the cage must sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage.
- Red cages are psycho killer cages. Digits placed in cages point to boxes in the grid, and provide a referred digit which is the digit in the same position in the box that is pointed to. The referred digits in the cage must sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage. Referred digits can repeat.
eg If there is a 2 in a cage, then the referred digit will be the digit in the same position in box 2; and that is the digit that will contribute to the cage total.
