** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
We love fog-of-war sudoku puzzles and this evening's has the distinction of being remarkably interesting and challenging. The rules are straightforward but finding the logical way of clearing all that fog definitely requires some thought! A magnificent sudoku by Chad called Renban Snakes - give it a try!

Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. The grid is mostly covered in fog. Placing correct digits will lift the fog around the placed digit revealing more clues. A cell containing an arrow is the start of a snake travelling in the indicated direction. The length of the snake is equal to the digit in the arrow's cell (snakes may be 1 cell long ie only occupy their arrow cell). A snake is a one-cell wide path of orthogonally connected cells that doesn't branch. Snakes may not overlap themselves or other snakes. Each snake acts as a “renban line” ie the digits on it form a set of non-repeating, consecutive digits in any order. Cells joined by a white dot must contain consecutive digits.
