yes a very sharp eye indeed.. I missed it for hours!(literally hours.. came back stared at it, nothing! went on with life... came back stared at it... rinse repeat over and over)
that was a very well "hidden" path, nice elegant and indeed approachable once you looked for the right thing.
So excuse me.. need to play the first one now :D

Excellent puzzle - great interactions with all the rulesets - some dots doing lots of work.

Thank you. This idea has some interesting potential applications. For me it is still working out the best ways to utalizes them in setting.

Logical deductions up to the end for me. Thanks for the setting!

I had multiple solutions at the end. It was a nice puzzle until that point.

Can you provide one of the alternative solutions? No one else, not even the tester, has noted another solution. Are you on Discord? You could screenshot it to me ("The Bard" on Discord), or you could provide row 5, 6, and 7, and then I should be able to rebuild it from there to see what is going on.
