  1. nice puzzle, but in one of the arrows the digits summed to 10 and 9 was in the circle, just wanted to clarify whether this is allowed or have i messed up?

    1. If there is a 9 in the circle , then sum of digits along the arrow path would be either 8 or 10.

  3. 7:27.Tricky .Very very tricky ! I thought that I had broken the sudoku when I was getting a total of 10 on of the arrow sums. I was close to erasing everything when I suddenly realized a sum total of 10 can be reached by using a 9 clue in circle !!
