Description
Here's where you can try Murder by Numbers by Lil_Sis & Big_Bro: https://sudokupad.app/nxzelh1c6v
Normal sudoku rules apply. The interior of the grey outline is cut into segments by the box borders and each segment sums to the total given. If the outline only cuts through half a cell, only half the value of the number is included in the total. Cells divided in half always contain an even number.
In cells joined by a red dot, one digit is double the other. Neighbouring digits along a green line have a difference of at least 5. The yellow squares reveal a number that corresponds to a letter of the alphabet (based on a=1 … z=26). Revealing the killer in this way is required!
