Gorgeous puzzle with a very clever setting! A fairly easy first few steps that lured me into a dark place that I thought it seemingly would lead me to nowhere, but that one incredible breakthrough guided me to the end in such a smooth manner later on ;)

The break-in bouncing around the grid is absolutely brilliant! Everything resolves so cleanly afterwards too! I'm so impressed!

Once this puzzle breaks, it's a fast solve. But before it does, it's very hard. I think this is probably top 5 in terms of difficulty of sudokus I have played so far. And I deliberately play only harder puzzles. Congratulations on construction - it's very good puzzle.
