Took me a couple restarts, but got through it. Excellent puzzle and nice twist on knight's rule!

Another sparse grid, following zetamath’s exclusivity. Lots of interactions on the few clues provided. Excellent and simple rule set. Thank you for creating and sharing this puzzle.

Brillant logic around the black dot in box 5. I'd loved the puzzle

Brilliant construction indeed! Easy enough to navigate if you take a moment to consider at the start and are careful with your pencilmarks. Beautiful puzzle.

Loved this - really nice simple-to-understand ruleset. Makes a change to see knights moves used in a different way from the normal anti-knight constraint.
I found it quite tricky and got stuck a few times. The black dot in box 5, despite refusing to be useful for quite a while, eventually worked in the most satisfying way.
Brilliant execution of the idea, as ever.
