▶Today's Puzzle◀

Today's sudoku is a brilliant mash-up of Hashi and Sudoku by the constructor Aspartagus! You can play the the practice puzzle at the first link and then the real puzzle at the link below that:

[When doing the main puzzle in the Penpa software we recommend using the Penpa settings explained in the video.... ie Composite set to "Hashi" and Numbers set to "Candidates"...]

Main Puzzle by Aspartagcus:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells separated by a small white dot are consecutive. Hashiwokakero rules apply, ie: Draw lines between the circles such that all circles are connected; the lines must be drawn in straight lines that are horizontal or vertical, and that do not cross any other lines or circles; at most two lines can connect a pair of circles; the number of lines connected to each circle must match the digit on that circle.

As mentioned in the video, do try our competition puzzle by Sam Cappleman-Lynes - it is brilliant and HARD!

https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/webapp/br7MDtjjHq

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. In cages digits sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage. Digits cannot repeat in a cage. Clues outside the grid give the sum of the cells on the indicated diagonal. Digits may repeat along the diagonal.

Competition closing date is a week today (ie 14 November 2020). Winner will receive a piece of Cracking The Cryptic merchandise. Send entries to crackingthecryptic@gmail.com

Entries will be judged by logical path and also artistic merit! We'll be releasing a video (hopefully featuring Sam himself) on Patreon after the closing date explaining how to solve the puzzle.
