-- Thank you @mezkur7, I should probably go back to all my older puzzles and update the links to include the solution. It's much easier to do with the newer tools :-)

Very cool trickery for the magic squares. Figuring out the 16 cages was quite difficult, I can never remember all the cage combinations - but the overall flow of the solution path is exquisite.
