Thanks a lot for all the feedback. I added a little warning in the description for the newer players and the difficulty.
I hope it can still help some people!

Nice puzzle, but
"easy for intermediate solvers" is a more accurate description than "approachable for first-time solvers"

I agree that this is a little harder than the others in the series. Still enjoyed it! Thank you for making this introductory series, I think it's been very helpful.

Thank you for this one. As a not very advanced solver I had a good time and feel prepared to challenge other Little Killers.

Thank you for this fun little killer puzzle, Azireo! I think it is somewhat harder than your other introductory puzzles.
You have done a great job providing some of the main ideas in this variant.

Thanks for this! Newer solver here and have been avoiding this variant so far, but this was a nice & gentle introduction to it
