*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
We've had some recommendations to look at this slightly older puzzle by Nell Gwyn called Refractions. It has some fascinating logic and is of average difficulty according to Logic Masters. Can you see why the palindromes in this sudoku are so well thought of?

Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://sudokupad.app/qdr9xurd28

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits on a grey line must be the same read backwards and forwards. Each pink line contains a set of consecutive digits, in any order. Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in that arrow’s circle. Digits on a black dot have a 1:2 ratio (ie one digit will be double the other). Not all dots are (necessarily) given.
