Normal Sudoku rules apply. Each row, column, and 3x3 box contains each number from 1 to 9 exactly once.
Killer Sudoku rules apply. The sum of all numbers in a cage (marked with dashed lines) must match the small number printed in its corner. No number appears more than once in a cage.
Draw a path between the two grey cells, which:
1) Cannot touch itself orthogonally
2) Cannot cross itself
3) Cannot contain even numbers (including the grey cells)

CTC: https://tinyurl.com/yemkbt37
Normal sudoku rules apply. A river is a snake path of orthogonally connected cells starting next to a cage; the digit in that cage sets the length of the river. The number in the top-left corner of a cage sets the sum of the digits along the river. Rivers must decline in digit value from one direction to the other, starting from the cage. Rivers cannot include cages. Rivers may touch themselves orthogonally, and rivers may overlap.
Summary: Rivers act as "reverse thermometer arrows", with the controlling cage setting the length and total. Including the controlling cage, cages must not be in the river.

Boldly solve where you have not before in this fun puzzle!
Normal sudoku rules apply. Shade some cells to help you solve this puzzle.
2 color Japanese Sum Sudoku rules apply. Totals outside the grid give the sum of shaded cells. Colorful clues mean that all the clues in that row/column are the same color. Black clues mean that the clues in that row/column contain different colors. Consecutive groups must be separated by an unshaded cell when the groups are the same color. When the groups are different colors, no unshaded cell is necessary between them. The colors used in shading this puzzle are blue and red.
