The Secrets To Clear Your Sudoku Fog
1,456*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
A wonderful "fog of war" sudoku today from Oddlyeven called Regions In The Fog. It combines region sum lines with fog-of-war in a refreshing and interesting way and, while it's not monstrously hard, it IS interesting. Give yourself a treat and have a go!
Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Lines are Region Sum Lines: The sum of the digits on a line within a 3x3 box must be the same for each 3x3 box that line passes through. If a line passes through a 3x3 box more than once, each time it passes through counts separately. Lines do not branch or cross. The grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells.
