Incredible puzzle. Managed to solve it with a different middle-path than Simon's, a very colorful one. Thank you for setting!

One of my all-time favorite puzzles. It also made a great video when featured by CTC by Simon. It was said to be one of the most difficults that he had done at that time. Many times you see him struggle before he finds the logic. A lot of OMG moments well worth watching. (Do pop some popcorn though, you will be there for a while.)

I watched the CTC feature of this amazing puzzle almost 2 years ago. Ever since I have been keeping this puzzle unsolved so that I can forget most of the steps needed. And while that didn't work out quite as expected as the logic is so unique and sublime (such that I didn't ever fully forget it), I still had tons of fun solving it today, as my 1000th puzzle solve. Incredible!

This is a beautiful puzzle. Very hard but also very satisfying as the logic flows so nicely.
