Done. I had to eviscerate my cat and read her entrails to solve this one.

[Note: no actual cats were harmed in the solving of this puzzle. Andy just has some trouble with filters and boundaries in his online chatting at times.]

Difficulty score 42. No green, yet. But I have 16 filled and am thinking I won't get any more without green.

K.Elisabet
Back again... is there any technique other than guessing to get past 21?
5:22 pm
KnightTime
the key subgrid is the center right one - get it and the puzzle unlocks
5:35 pm

katmama

6:16 pm
drwho
After 21, I found a forcing chain and a naked triple to solve it.
6:17 pm
drwho
Actually I could have done without the naked triple if I had crosshatched a column.

angieplumptit
Responds well to the Feldheimer reverse

daneel
uhoh - diving into this one from the comments sounds like fun
7:15 pm
Zugzug7
a well placed 1 and 4 and this was a piece of cake. Of course I had to make a guess to place that 1 and 4.
7:46 pm
K.Elisabet
I don't know the name of the technique but there's a rectangular formation with pairs where one corner's "either/or" forces the opposite corner to be a particular value. Is that a forcing chain?
7:49 pm
K.Elisabet
Whatever it's called, now I'm stuck at 22. Progress!
