*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
If we ever make another book, this puzzle needs to be in it. Jeff Wajes' Circles And Sets is so spectacularly clever that it's almost sentient! Prepare to be dazzled if you have a go at this one.

Play the puzzle at the following link:

https://sudokupad.app/36fdw51b62

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply. In each cage, digits do not repeat and sum to the given total. A digit in a circle indicates how many times that digit appears in circles.

*** ROLLER COASTER NURIKABE by the_cogito ***
Simon's 2.5 hour solve of Roller Coaster Nurikabe by the_cogito is now available on Patreon. Check the puzzle out at the link below:
