        Fun solve! I honestly didn't notice the theme until I'd finished

          Thanks for the fun grid mechanic, and also for putting Soft Cell in my head for the rest of the day!

            Nice puzzle.

              Great puzzle! The theme clicked after I'd gotten the first set of circles, but just before I got to the second. Very fun!

                I was slightly hung up in the SW but I surprised myself by making it through this one w/o too much help. Clever interpretation of the theme!
