Amazing! After a few initial cracks, this puzzle just flows and hence very fulfilling to solve. Thanks

I found it harder than 3*. But no matter what difficulty rating the puzzle ends on, the solve has been huge fun. Thank you, Donatello_86!

Very nice setting! I have found that some 3* puzzles seem to be easier than others when the setter has very elegant setting...the flow of the solve makes it seem easier. I always credit the setter when that happens to me. Very nicely done!
