It took me forever to find the break-in, but when I had it, it was truly beautiful and the puzzle flowed well enough from there.

Very nice puzzle. Although challenging, it was always fairly obvious what I should be working on. Nice work.

I spent way too long focused on one part of the grid. Excellent idea and execution.

Holy moly that was somewhat satisfying solve, anti-king saved the day as always :)

Neat puzzle! I liked how the constraints interact with each other, and the use of the king's move!

Very nice puzzle! It took a me a while to figure out the break-in but it's an elegant one, and I enjoyed chasing the digits with king's move in the mid-solve.
