Very Nice Puzzle. I am rating the difficulty a bit higher than the maker. Although the puzzle is very smooth and easy to solve, it requires a few advanced techniques to get it started

Very fun approachable puzzle. The break in is quite smooth. I love low/high coloring puzzles like these. Especially with knights move.

Thank you for all the kind comments! When I posted this, I felt the breakin was wired, cute and interesting. But I'm still pleasantly surprised about how much engagement it created.

Thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you. Now for a joke about "ni."
Why did the computer go to the doctor?
Because it had a case of the "ni-ternet."
That's some cerebral humor right there. I don't care what you say.

Easy and nice. Break-in took me a bit too long.
