1 party hat for me! :) Great solve & great Puzzle! Thank you!

8:57 Enjoyed it. This one had some (C4) rotational symmetry - the opening following the outside evens around, and the outside odds (you only did the top and bottom 1 and 9: the 3 and 7 on the sides were also available the same way) I liked it.

Since you asked: I feel the tiniest bit let down when I notice complete rotational symmetry of digits. OTOH, I really enjoy symmetrical deductions in the solve path and loved the opening of this puzzle 🪅

[@RossReedstrom]

Agree, prefer this kind of symmetry (logic) over the "adds up to 10" sort of symmetry.

6:43 for me. I think I wasted time on coloring this time 😅 Usually it helps

[@TheAntibozo]

Your audio is way too loud.

8:04 okay for me

[@fluffycritter]

8:03 for me. As usual, naked logic is my undoing.
