Good grief, what a fantastic puzzle! Astounding break-in and beautiful deductions follow after that, definitely one of my favorites from you ;)

I loved the break-in to this, and how you can slowly whittle away possibilities. One digit seems to create a double or triple in the row or column, which slowly makes its way around the puzzle. All very approachable, but there is no point until the end where you're just mindlessly filling in digits. It has such a linear and exciting solution path. Very well designed!

What a break-in yet again! I don't know how you come up with these. Your puzzles often make me feel like I'm out of my depth at the beginning, but then I manage to find something and it makes for a very satisfying solve. Kudos to you!

Very nice ! I don't think 4 stars is overrated, the break-in is not that easy to catch, and it doesn't fall apart right after either.

@cdwg2000 Thank you. Concerning the difficulty rating. I posted this on Discord and got rated 4 stars so that's why I posted it here as a 4 stars. But I do agree that it could be a 3 as well.
