** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
This is Simon's first time tackling one of Arbitrary's sudokus. It's called Things In Common and, well, it's completely brilliant. We're not sure how easy/difficult this one is - Logic Masters says 4-out-of-5 stars. It's the kind of puzzle that you could be stuck on for days until you see the trick!

Play the puzzle at the link below:
https://sudokupad.app/q80drlpksu

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits along a pink "renban" line form a consecutive set without repeats. (These digits can appear in any order.) Digits within a cage do not repeat and sum to the indicated value (if given).

** NEW SUMGEONS & DIAGRAMS PUZZLE **
If you enjoyed our recent Dungeons & Diagrams streams then definitely check out the new puzzle by sunnyjum, Sumgeons & Diagrams, which combines D&D and sudoku in a brilliant way. The puzzle can be played completely free over on Patreon (and Simon's solve of the puzzle is available behind the paywall).
