A lot of fun, definitely somewhere in the 2.5-3* range.

This was really nice and I also think one of the harder puzzles I've actually solved on this website. This was my first time going all out on coloring the grid, but it paid off.

Nice and tricky, I would rate it 4*

What a lovely puzzle, but not so easy as a 2* I thought. Then again, maybe I was just being a bit slow. Many thanks to the setter.

Beautiful puzzle. It all fit together so nicely at the end.
I agree with Silverscree; the first thing i was looking for was the only thing that could have done it, and i was slightly shocked that it could possibly be enough.

This wasn't easy. I think 3* is a fair rating.

I did enjoy the puzzle! :-) The grid turned into an explosion of colour as I linked logical deductions. Thanks for the puzzle.
