Nice one.

I liked the flow of it. The way I solved it, I had quite a lot of squares pegged down for 1 of 2 possible digits from very early on, that only fell into place at the very end. Maybe there was another way, but if that was intended, well done!

Thank you!
Yeah, there were some spots where either one of the possible digits eliminates possibilities for other cells.
For example (spoiler): r1c1: 1 or 4 and r1c2: 2 or 3, these prevent the 5 from being a sum, then it surely contains a 1, then r1c1:4.
Glad you caught them.

I actually meant R2C4, R1C6 and R2C6, I had them figured out at either 6,6,5 or 5,5,6 early on, and only very close to the end I managed to settle for 6,6,5. Probably just the result of the order in which I processed all the clues when things started to unfold, but it was nice anyway.

Well, that was a part of the plan, so if you worked them out very late in the puzzle, all the better!

Very nice. I found it actually quite straightforward though. It really falls into place quickly once you get going. EDIT: Never mind, I goofed somewhere, and was only accidentally correct Upon re-doing it, it wasn't quite as straightforward, but still has a nice flow. It worked out the same way as Forseti got it.

I enjoyed as well, was quite difficult for me.

Strangely, I found this fairly simple - a really nice flow. Surprising, as I've been struggling with some of the other 3 stars. Brain must just be in the right phase, tonight.
