After doing the V1, I decided to try the V0.9 next because it has he same cage pattern. Unlike the V1, which I found flowed nicely, I struggled with V0.9 but that was because I'd missed a very simple step which took me two days to find.
Here is my walkthrough for V0.9.
Prelims
a) 15(2) cage at R1C1 = {69/78}
b) R1C34 = {16/25/34}, no 7,8,9
c) R12C5 = {39/48/57}, no 1,2,6
d) R1C67 = {12}
e) 8(2) cage at R1C9 = {17/26/35}, no 4,8,9
f) R34C1 = {29/38/47/56}, no 1
g) R34C9 = {29/38/47/56}, no 1
h) R5C12 = {15/24}
i) R5C89 = {69/78}
j) R67C1 = {19/28/37/46}, no 5
k) R67C9 = {16/25/34}, no 7,8,9
l) 9(2) cage at R8C2 = {18/27/36/45}, no 9
m) R89C5 = {18/27/36/45}, no 9
n) 13(2) cage at R8C8 = {49/58/67}, no 1,2,3
o) R9C34 = {17/26/35}, no 4,8,9
p) R9C67 = {39/48/57}, no 1,2,6
q) 23(3) cage at R2C6 = {689}
r) 22(3) cage at R5C4 = {589/679}
s) 10(3) cage at R6C5 = {127/136/145/235}, no 8,9
t) 12(4) cage in N1 = {1236/1245}, no 7,8,9
u) 26(4) cage in N3 = {2789/3689/4589/4679/5678}, no 1
v) 13(4) cage in N9 = {1237/1246/1345}, no 8,9
Steps resulting from Prelims
1a. Naked pair {12} in R1C67, locked for R1, clean-up: no 5,6 in R1C34, no 6,7 in R2C8
1b. Naked pair {34} in R1C34, locked for R1, clean-up: no 8,9 in R2C5, no 5 in R2C8
1c. 12(4) cage in N1 = {1236/1245}, 1,2 locked for N1, clean-up: no 9 in R4C1
1d. 13(4) cage in N9 = {1237/1246/1345}, 1 locked for N9, clean-up: no 6 in R6C9
1e. 22(3) cage at R5C4 = {589/679}, CPE no 9 in R6C4
[There would also be 23(3) cage at R2C6 = {689}, CPE no 6 in R2C8 if this hadn’t already been eliminated by the clean-up in step 1a.]
2. Killer pair 3,4 in R1C3 and 12(4) cage, locked for N1, clean-up: no 7,8 in R4C1
3. 45 rule on N3 3 innies R1C7 + R3C79 = 11 = {128/146/236} (cannot be {137/245} because R3C7 only contains 6,8,9), no 5,7,9, clean-up: no 2,4,6 in R4C9
3a. R3C7 = {68} -> no 6,8 in R3C9, clean-up: no 3,5 in R4C9
3b. 8(3) cage at R1C9 = [53/71] (cannot be [62] which clashes with R1C7 + R3C79), no 2,6
3c. Killer pair 1,3 in R1C7 + R3C79 and R2C2, locked for N3
3d. 9 in 23(3) cage at R2C6 only in R2C6 + R4C8, CPE no 9 in R4C6
4. Naked quad {6789} in R45C89, locked for N6
[I missed something very simple here, which I didn’t spot until step 12.]
5. 45 rule on N7 3 innies R7C13 + R9C3 = 11 = {128/137/146/236/245}, no 9, clean-up: no 1 in R6C1
6. 45 rule on N9 3 innies R7C79 + R9C7 = 19 = {289/379/469/478/568}
[{478} can be eliminated by triple block with 13(2) cage at R8C8 but I’ll leave that for now because of the low SS score.]
6a. 2,3 of {289/379} must be in R7C9 -> no 2,3 in R79C7, clean-up: no 9 in R9C6
6b. 5 of {568} must be in R79C7 (R79C7 cannot be {68} which clashes with R3C3) -> no 5 in R7C9, clean-up: no 2 in R6C9
7. 12(4) cage in N1 = {1236/1245}
7a. R1C2 = {56} -> no 5,6 in R2C13 + R3C2
8. 3 in R5 only in R5C3567, CPE no 3 in R4C46 + R6C46
9. 12(3) cage at R6C8 = {129/138/147/156/237/246/345}
9a. 8,9 in {129/138} must be in R7C7 -> no 8,9 in R8C6
10. 9 in N8 only in R7C45 + R8C4, CPE no 9 in R4C4
10a. 9 in R6 only in R6C1236, CPE no 9 in R5C3
10b. 9 in 45(9) cage at R3C5 only in R357C5 + R6C6, CPE no 9 in R4C5
11. 45 rule on C89 2 outies R28C7 = 2 innies R46C8 + 3
11a. Min R46C8 = 7 -> min R28C7 = 10 -> no 2 in R2C7
[At this stage I was finding it hard to see what to do next and spotted the OTT step
R2C5 cannot be 3 => R5C6 = 3 (hidden single in N5) => cannot place 3 for 45(9) cage at R3C5.]
[Then I spotted something simple which I ought to have seen immediately after step 4.]
12. Naked quad {6789} in R45C89 = 30, R5C89 = {69/78} = 15 -> R4C89 = 15 = [69/87], no 9 in R4C8, no 8 in R4C9, clean-up: no 3 in R3C9
13. 23(3) cage at R2C6 = {689} -> R2C6 = 9, R3C7 + R4C8 = {68}, CPE no 6,8 in R3C8, clean-up: no 6 in R1C1, no 3 in R2C5
14. R1C7 + R3C79 (step 3) = {128/146} -> R1C7 = 1, R1C6 = 2, R2C8 = 3, R1C9 = 5, R1C2 = 6, clean-up: no 9 in R1C1, no 7 in R2C5, no 5 in R4C1, no 2 in R7C9, no 8 in R8C8, no 3 in R9C1
14a. 1 in N6 only in R6C89, locked for R6

15a. Naked pair {78} in 15(2) cage at R1C1, locked for N1, clean-up: no 3,4 in R4C1
15b. Naked pair {59} in R3C13, locked for R3
16. 12(4) cage in N1 = {1236} (only remaining combination) -> R3C2 = 3, R2C13 = {12}, locked for R2, R1C3 = 4, R1C4 = 3, clean-up: no 6 in R9C1, no 5 in R9C3
17. 9 in N5 only in R5C45, locked for R5, clean-up: no 6 in R5C8
18. Naked pair {78} in R5C89, locked for R5 and N6 -> R4C8 = 6, R3C7 = 8, R4C9 = 9, R3C9 = 2, R4C1 = 2, R3C1 = 9, R3C3 = 5, R2C13 = [12], clean-up: no 4 in R5C12, no 8 in R67C1, no 7,8 in R8C2, no 4 in R8C8, no 6 in R9C4, no 4 in R9C6, no 7 in R9C9
19. R5C12 = [51], clean-up: no 4 in R8C2, no 8 in R9C1
20. R5C8 = 8 (hidden single in C8), R5C9 = 7
21. R9C9 = 8 (hidden single in C9), R8C8 = 5, R8C2 = 2, R9C1 = 7, R1C1 = 8, R2C2 = 7, R1C5 = 7, R2C5 = 5, clean-up: no 3 in R67C1, no 1 in R8C5, no 1 in R9C34, no 2 in R9C5, no 5 in R9C6, no 4 in R9C7
22. R9C67 = [39], R9C3 = 6, R9C4 = 2, R9C5 = 1, R8C5 = 8, R9C8 = 4, R9C2 = 5, R3C8 = 7, R5C3 = 3, R67C1 = [64], R8C1 = 3
23. R7C9 = 3 (hidden single in N9), R6C9 = 4, R7C7 = 7 (step 6)
24. 15(3) cage at R3C4 = {348} (only remaining combination, cannot be {168} because 1,6 only in R3C4) -> R3C4 = 4, R4C35 = [83]
and the rest is naked singles.
