Year of the Rabbit: Perseverance will be Required
Here's where you can try Year of the Rabbit 2023 by Morisenseiisgod: https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/RdMFQGFqdn
Normal sudoku rules apply. Any three consecutive digits on a red modular line must have different remainders when divided by 3. A clue outside the grid gives the sum of the digits on the marked diagonal. Digits may repeat on a diagonal where allowed by other rules. Digits on the grey circles sum to a factor of 2023, and digits on the grey line sum to a multiple of 8. It is up to the solver to deduce these sums.
Here are the URLs for today's 5 GAS (Genuinely Approachable Sudoku) puzzles. Hat times are given as (two hats/one hat). Any correct solution gets you a dinosaur. NOTE that there are no f-puzzles links this time due to matters affecting that platform at the time that these puzzles were originally posted.
