Description

Here's where you can try The Graveyard Of Totality by fjam: https://sudokupad.app/xxltzfdah0
Normal sudoku rules apply. In graves (cages), digits must sum to the total of at least two of the day, month and year of the date on the grave. Digits cannot repeat within graves.
Escape the graveyard by carefully plotting an orthogonally connected path between the green and red cells. The path may not cross the highest or lowest digits in a grave.
