Great puzzle! I found the break-in quite tricky, but the rest of the puzzle more approachable. Now I need to go make a snack, haha.

Brilliant and elegant puzzle! I'm glad it was featured on CTC because that's how I found it. (Video title "This Constructor's Favourite Puzzle")

Many will compliment your logic - and rightfully so! - but let us take a moment to appreciate and reflect on the puzzle name. I tip my hat to your puzzle-titling.

I had to come back three times to get the break in, but it was really rewarding in the end!! Wonderful idea and great execution, thank you for setting :)
