Not sure why such a low rating for this puzzle, Imfor one liked it a lot.
Maybe 1.5 stars for me. But then again I’ve a lot of sandwich puzzles.

The clues are definitely very obvious, but this feels more like an easier 2* puzzle. I enjoyed the flow, great job!

Kudos to your testers, I would also say this is certainly harder than your usual 1 star-puzzle. It tumbles at a certain point, but until then it needs attention. Good fun anyway!

I've solved 100's of 1- and 2-star puzzles on this site, and this was the hardest solve I've ever completed. 1-star? Really? I must have
missed something obvious.

@RussKozerski - I imagine that's been having an impact on the reception of it, too. Once the puzzle has been voted on enough the rating is outside of my control.
There was a much easier version with additional (not strictly necessary) clues that helped ease the solve path, however I got so many complaints for having those in the puzzle I reworked it to exclude them. It bumped up the difficulty but given the amount of testers it had (easier puzzles tend to attrack more testers), I think a lot of people had it in their head as a 1-star puzzle still and voted accordingly.
I find star-ratings are also impacted by the uniqueness of the logic; if it involves lots of familiar constraints, it tends to be rated lower for difficulty than it might normally be. Oh well, it's all enriched atmosphere.
Well done on the solve! Sounds like you might be ready for some additional challenges <3 -- VKP
