It should have an extremely high entertainment rating that's for sure. A lot of interesting ground covered.

For a player preferring chain technique this puzzle is not so difficult. 2 in r2c1 is sufficient to make it a one stepper, and probably there also are more openings for that. Working with two syncronized chains - also going out from 2 in r2c5 (false) gives very soon some digits that in both cases must be correct.

Yes, my puzzles are generated and manually selected to provide a varying number of VH/VH+ steps. (Some puzzles also contain an Advanced step.)

Because of my selection criteria, the puzzles with fewer VH/VH+ steps should crack easily with chains/W-Wings/M-Wings. This gives a variety of options for those solving the puzzles. I do this in the hopes that players of different skill levels can (enjoyably) solve most of my puzzles. All solutions are welcome and they help me gauge my success in reaching a broad player community.

Regards, Danny
