Really fun! I found the break-in tricky mostly because I read the rules as intending the whole thermo to be something I could fill in with sudoku digits, which is of course mathematically impossible, but once I let myself solve for any integer it became quite smooth.

Thanks for the lovely puzzle - very approachable while still being fun and having a nice bit of logic involved.

A very nice puzzle, loved it so much. As for the idea behind the opening, I kind of have the feeling that "there's probably only this kind of approach for setting up the problem" XD

What a strange and unreal puzzle! You should've seen the faces I made looking at the blank grid and being dumbfounded that it solves... And yet, so smooth and so clever. Well deserving of a high rating and certainly not difficult!

Very impressive that this grid solves as cleanly as it does, very neat find.

Loving all of your miniature puzzles this week, feels like each one is part of an advent calander leading up to Xmas.

I had to try a few variations on the break-in before pinning things down, it's a nice little trick
