Thanks HATMAN for these fun puzzles. You keep coming up with types of Sudokus which I've never seen before. Killer Low Clue 1 is an easy one; still worth posting, I assume that the original newspaper version gave all the totals so would have been too easy for this site.

I will add my thanks to HATMAN. I had not seen this style of puzzle before either. Another type where we get two puzzles for the price of one |

Very cool, looking forward to trying these. (Though, I briefly thought about hunting down the broadsheet versions to get my feet wet. ) Question: "Top dominating left". What is *not* "usual"? (corrected to add "*not*") |

The sum is in the top (first) then left (second) corner. so on the row below the sum (or lower) the cage can go to the left of the sum. |
