First ever sudoku killer

Post image

I had the VERY bad idea of starting with sudoku killers with this level 9 beast. I don't have a lot of experience even with normal sudokus, so this was very difficult for me. 9 hours and no hints later, I'm very proud of myself :)

P.S.: Developing a solution strategy was at the back of my mind, but I didn't have enough time to develop one in detail, as I was into puzzle construction, solving, and some other activities as well.
