*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
It took James Sinclair just one hour to set one of the most popular and beautiful sudokus we've seen in recent months. It's called Decimation and you'll need to be familiar with how to make two digits sum to 10... sound easy?!
Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/fmRMNJ6TmT
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. In cages, digits must sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage. Digits cannot repeat within a cage. Digits in cells separated by an X sum to 10. All possible Xs are given.
