this is a beautiful puzzle. I love it when the small breaks in symmetry are the key to breaking in, rather than endgame distinguishments.

Here's my solve of your puzzle. Loved the interaction between the black kropki dots and the german whisper lines!

I agree w/ @wuc on this. The break in took me a bit of thought, but the only spot i really got stuck was once in the middle, otherwise everything flowed very very nicely. Thank you!

Nice interactions. One big hurdle mid game to me. Not at all obvious. The rest flowed very nice. Great setting thx.
