[I am not checking Sudoku solutions, life is too short and you can all do that for yourselves, but well done, Harry]

Madness, you didn’t give us anything easy to enter in here, did you? It has taken me a lot longer than usual for a sudoku, I guess I’ll have to practice later. Here is my solution, and I’m pretty sure it’s correct because I checked it in a sudoku app 🙂

I hope you like how I types that out Harry, took about half an hour longer than the actual puzzle.
Thanks for designing such a great puzzle for us Madness.

[Well done, will be posting links to a forthcoming book by @crypticcracking shortly. If you liked Madness’s Sudoku and Rod’s Enigma I think you will really like this! Harry]

Encountered a ‘hitch’ about half way through but I seem to have got it in the end!

[I think this was harder than people expected. Madness will be pleased! Harry]

[Madness]

If Harry ever allows me to submit another sudoku, I guarantee much difficulty. Much, much difficulty.
Wha ha ha ha—-

Yeah, a rating of “2” surprised me.

[Haven’t you worked out the rating algorithm yet? Harry]

[Well done, Harry]
This is solved as a Nonogram like a Picross or Hanji

[Cribbage]

Not sure if I have got this. But, if I
2. 5th letter on 1st row is meant to be an ‘S’ to make [Yes] as the answer.

BOSS 4
[Well done]
And thank for the hint 😉

[Madness]

Except that the new grid has an “L” which should be an “S” [top row].

[Feefen]

Yes! I got it!
BOSS puzzle challenge 4:
[Well done, Harry]
Thanks to @The-letter-wriggler for the hint!

[F6exb]

@Madness,
That explain why I didn’t understand the text. 🙂

[The-letter-wriggler]

Haaa, the hats…
I will pass on this one because I already know the answer, but on my first encounter it was very puzzling.

If it is your first encounter then it is a treat! Good luck.
