Beautiful puzzle! I got the initial break in fairly intuitively but the second hard step threw me at first and I broke the puzzle. Had to rerack and it was a smooth fun solve!

Fantastic break-in! Definitely at the harder end of three star for me, but it was enjoyable throughout.

Beautiful theme and a smooth solve (once you spot the way forward)! I found many steps quite surprising, which I personally enjoy greatly

A very logical step-by-step puzzle. Quite a difficult logic, but only until you discover the nature of the "28" cage. I spend great time solving it.

Really nice! But also really hard for me for some reason, it took me twice as long as a 3-star puzzle usually..
