      The subtle cross referencing of clues was a pleasant surprise. Can’t pick a favorite clue this time, they are all bangers. (Solved in Paris airport)

        I'm so glad they landed with you! Definitely some eleventh hour cleanup to get it there, but I do feel like a mini should aim as much as possible for all killer no filler.

        Thanks for the puzzle. I don't understand the "top-tier" bit in 2D!

          Thanks for asking. In video games, things are often ranked into tiers from D (being the worst) to S (being the best). So in the context of this video game surface, I think S for top-tier is valid (but maybe it was too niche a stretch).
