1:59:21 “Ambiguous Kropki Pairs Sudoku” by Jacob Cohen
F-Puzzles: https://f-puzzles.com/?id=y2j76u6k
CTC: https://tinyurl.com/yxvr9hjj
In a normal Kropki Pairs sudoku, a white dot connects consecutive digits, and a black dot connects digits in a 1:2 ratio. This puzzle contains only gray dots, which can be either!
Therefore, a 4 on a dot could be next to a 3 or 5 (consecutive) or 2 or 8 (1:2 ratio). Not all possible dots are necessarily given.
Of course, normal sudoku rules also apply.

3:31:31 “Cave” by Shye
PuzzLink: https://tinyurl.com/2p9cr2tn
Shade some cells so that the shaded cells are all connected orthogonally by other shaded cells to the edge of the grid, and the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area, the cave. Clues cannot be shaded, and represent the total number of unshaded cells that can be seen in a straight line vertically or horizontally, including the cell itself.

3:48:14 “Herugolf” by Tyrgannus
PuzzLink: https://tinyurl.com/3a5bwjft
Move the circles vertically or horizontally at least once each so that each circle ends up stopping on an H (hole). A ball can go in an H with potential moves still available as long as it lands at the end of a full move. A circle’s first move must be in a straight line of the number of cells indicated by the number inside it, and each successive move must be one cell shorter than the previous. Circles’ paths may not cross themselves, each other, other circles, or other circles’ starting points. They also may not pass over an H without stopping on it, and may not ever stop on a cell with water but can pass over it. Example picture: https://tinyurl.com/yc37pckm

PuzzLink: https://tinyurl.com/2hx8ubu9
Place a number into each cell so that each region contains the numbers from 1 to N with no repeats, where N is the number of cells in the region. Numbers of the same value may not touch one another orthogonally. Where two numbers within a region are stacked vertically, the number on top must always be larger.
