Took me a little bit to spot the correct break-in but once I got there, i was off and running. Beautiful and smooth logical path, some great deductions on the way. Nicely done :)

I also tried the harder version. I think knowing the original break-in helped a lot. Took me about the same length of time.

@cdwg2000, @MariaL + @Qodec:

Thanks! I'm really pleased you you enjoyed the logical path in the puzzle :-)

@Storm, @PotatoHead21 + @Crystal Phoenix:

I'm really glad that the break-in logic was interesting and that the remaining solve was fun and approachable. Thanks for the lovely feedback :-)

Lovely break-in! I was proud to have spotted it quickly (thank you ctc!), though it was still a challenge to disambiguate and progress. And the arrow interactions for the remainder of the solve were quite nice as well. Very enjoyable solve!

Another fabulous puzzle from the great Sudoku Explorer. I really liked the interactions between row 3 and column 3

I loved the break-in logic! It went smoothly afterwards. I may try the harder version tomorrow.
