This is one of the coolest break-ins I've seen. Really fun twist on this series.

Rated this 2/5 difficulty. The logic for coloring was fairly simple/straightforward, and the placement of the square was already quite limited and could be deduced about halfway through coloring.
Very cool! I probably could have solved this a bit quicker, but decided to color the whole puzzle before disambiguating anything further - but it was very nice & a great use of a magic square in a puzzle. Great concept & execution.

Found the magic square too early so I didn't need the coloring I love about these puzzles. Still very original!

A very original way to disambiguate the end grid!

The idea to combine XV with a magic square is pure genius. Love this series!
