Exploring the Foggy Sudoku Prison!!

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits in a cage don't repeat and sum to the given clue in the top left corner of the cage (the clue is always given and must be located in the leftmost cell of the uppermost row of the cage.) Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive digits. Additionally the grid is partially covered in fog. Placing correct digits will clear the fog from surrounding cells, possibly revealing more clues.

** OUR DECEMBER COMPETITION & SIMON'S BONUS SOLVES **
100 4x4 Snackdoku pack from the Skunkworks was released two days ago as our monthly reward.

Simon's solve of Broken Secrets by TotallyNormalCat was also released yesterday. You can try that puzzle here: https://sudokupad.app/jMg44R2tpb
