【明报专讯】■Game 1

Do you remember the new kind of puzzle, CalcuDoku, from one of the previous issues? This time, Dr. Panda presents another number puzzle that combines Sudoku and addition: it's called Killer Sudoku! It may sound difficult to solve, but Dr. Panda has confidence in you. Never give up!

(See the picture)

Rules:

1. You have a 6x6 grid divided into six 2x3 regions.

2. There are some ''cages'' indicated by dotted lines. Each cage has a total value in the corner. The numbers inside the cage must add up to this total.

3. Each row, column, and 2x3 region must contain the numbers 1 to 6 without repeating. Additionally, numbers cannot repeat within a cage.

Hint: Look for cages with fewer possible combinations or smaller totals to fill in first.
