This was fun and simple rules to understand. However it still took me 18 minutes to solve so a 2.5 difficulty for me. Thank you for setting and sharing.

Thank you for this great puzzle, Memeristor! The break-in was approachable and very beautiful at the same time. After that the puzzle kept flowing all the way. Excellent setting!

very nice.
while this puzzle isn't really "hard", substantial experience with the "rare" counting circles variant is advisable.

I've never been this unsure of my solve in my life, but when it worked out the puzzle turned into a very fun one.

I found your circles to be just and mighty, even though there was only four of them...
Wonderful puzzle!
