Really good puzzle, i like the ruleset and once you get the first constraints the puzzle unwind itself slowly ! Love it

This puzzle is so fun and approachable! I love when coloring and sudoku are both used at once rather than full color before full sudoku.
I thought the difficulty was around 1.5
Definitely not for experts only! This puzzle seems like a great introduction to the clue uniqueness rule and i don’t know what roping is.
Definitely give this a try if you’re cautiously curious!

it comes down to this: IF you recognize roping and its applications, AND are experienced with the uniqueness rule (*), then you can solve this puzzle comfortably.
THEREFORE, this puzzle is best described as "for experts only", so leans toward level 3
(*) because it has no visual cues, and you will need to consider it continuously
