Normal Sudoku rules apply.

How sneaky to have such a depth after that very easy first step. Beautiful puzzle thx.

It never seems to amaze me that 14 circles can lead to a unique solution with just 2 simple rules. Fantastic construction and very pleasing on the eye. Thank you for sharing this beauty.

Best company for my morning coffee. Loved everything about it. The day can only be good today. Thank you!

I agree with Lorena: great puzzle and beautiful graphics. If only the light reflections on the counting circles would sit in the upper right… :-)
It also took me quite long when the puzzle started to resolve because of overseeing some simple Sudoku.

juggler: Dang it, you're right; upper right would have been more cohesive! Well, live and learn :)

I LOVED this puzzle. 10/10 in aesthetics and 10/10 in opening new pathways in my brain. Can’t ask for more!
My only minor nitpick is that the bubble in box 7 fooled me twice!
