    An utterly brilliant break-in. And the rest of the solving path was really sweet, too. Thank you for a fantastic puzzle!

    Agree with the previous comment. Never seen something quite like this before, although I will say, after being stuck for a while, the theme finally got me pointed in the right direction.

    Truly a brilliant break in. After that though it wasn’t really challenging. Would love if the rest was of equal level. Still 9/10, beautiful puzzle.
