Great! Definitively harder than the first three in the series.

I agree with the other commenters. Great symmetry break and very fun use of indexing.

[ok whoever thought this one is 3/5 diff (or lower), I need to talk to them and ask about how the hell they resolved the middle part that fast...]
Anyway, very clever and intricate puzzle despite the completely symmetrical puzzle, lots of mind-blowing deductions all over the place x)

I loved this one! The indexing was a very nice idea that works perfectly with the marble run, it was a very enjoyable puzzle, thanks!

Thanks I really like the two indexed holes per row. So much neat logic comes out of that. Thanks for your comment!

These marble run puzzles have really hit the sweet spot of being creative and novel puzzles without requiring terribly difficult logic. The "hole" indexers fit the theme of the puzzle perfectly and add a clever new dimension to the concept. And of course, the perfect symmetry in the puzzle is the cherry on top. S-tier puzzle!

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, I am happy you liked the puzzle!

Lovely logic including novel symmetry breaking mechanism. A really interesting solve.

Glad you liked it! I was very happy this worked with 100% symmetry in the cages and totals.

Solved this one during its testing phase on the CTC discord and loved the interaction between marble path logic and cages / sudoku a lot! Beautiful puzzle

Thanks! Appreciate the solve and feedback!
