Rules:
Normal sudoku rules almost apply. Place the digits 0-9 into cells such that each digit appears once in every row, column and region. To accommodate this, one cell in each row, column and region is a Schrödinger cell, which contains two digits. In graves (cages), digits must sum to the day, month or year of the date on the grave. Digits cannot repeat within graves. Escape the graveyard by carefully plotting an orthogonally connected path between the green and red cells. The path may not cross the highest or lowest digits in a grave.
