Default Brain Taxing SUper DUKO

350 Tokens up for grabs (at first) If you can complete this suduko with a difference.

As an incentive to complete it in the fastest time possible the tokens available to be won will decrease by 5 each day, starting this sunday (Oct 21st). If it gets down to 75 tokens I'll hold it there. Which (if i've done my maths right) should happen on the December 14th ish.


Aim of the game...
Complete each row, column and 3x3 box (marked by the heavy lines) so that they all contain the digits 1 to 9.

The Twist...
The number shown by each dotted box gives you the total of the numbers inside that shape, with no two digits the same. For example, a three-cell shape totalling 7 must contain 1, 2 and 4 in some order.

GOOD LUCK!


Rather than editing the image etc, Just post answer like this...

ABC DEF HIJ
KLM NOP QRS
TUV WXY Z12

I've finally finished it now. And I didn't look at the answers, so I'm super pleased with myself.

It didn't take as long as I had expected it to either.

My brain hurts just thinking about it - I'm not really a numbers sort of person - wrong side of the brain for me

I love puzzles, so it's right up my street.

Thought I'd post it anyway in case there was someone else who fancied giving it a go.

Smarty pants! At least it's kept you away from my lumpy artist for a few hours.

As you're an auzzie I'll give ya 340 tokens for that. Even though by my clock it should be down to 335 now.

Very well done!
