Very enjoyable puzzle. Difficult enough to make me feel like I achieved something by solving it with only a few moments where I ground to a halt.

Glad you enjoyed the puzzle and that the difficulty level was just right for the feeling of accomplishment. There are a few points that can be challenging, but not too brutal. As always, appreciate the solve/feedback.

This puzzle is very nice and enjoyable. I agree difficulty is somewhere between 3 and 4 stars. 4 Stars for people like me who are not good in doing mental math.

Appreciate the feedback/assessment. Yeah, the math part of the logic is kinda baked into the region sum constraint. Glad you enjoyed it and were able to make it to the finish line!

Very nice, but less than 3 stars in my opinion! Thank you

You're quite welcome, and I knew it wouldn't be difficult for every solver, but my test solves differed greatly in solve times thus my initial warning. I do appreciate the solve/feedback.
