Title: Solve this puzzle! (hard)
Post by: GameSnake on February 18, 2006, 04:50:27 PM
From the authors website:

"Below is a very special grid, around each shaded number are 8 white squares. However, each white square should have a number from 1 to 7. Once filled in, these 8 numbers will sum to the shaded number. In addition, once completed correctly, no row nor column will contain a duplicate number within a white square. For example, the top row may be 5 6 4 2 3 1 7, etc. This is [site name removed] most difficult puzzle, but is solvable without the aid of a computer"

I understand the concept, I don't know the numbers as I don't want to try.

By following the rules that govern this puzzle, how else?

It looks correct to me, though.
