    Very nice! I love the theme. I figured it out and then totally forgot about it when I was working on the SW corner so took me a while to "get" BRICKYA 😂

      Heck yeah! Thanks for solving :)

      I really enjoyed it! Was totally lost in the SW. One thing: Because of all the auto imagery, I imagined myself in a little car driving down the word; I had a hard time convincing myself it was not a right turn I was making when I got to the end of the column. Still loved it! Thanks for a great puzzle!

        Thanks so much! I went back and forth on that... I opted for the phonetic interpretation of "turn left" in the grid because I thought that might be a little more instinctive for a solver, but figured it had the potential to be confusing. If you have any tips on rewording the revealer to make that more clear, I'd love to hear! Still very much learning.
