The objective of a round

Start here and follow along

- Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
- Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
- Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
- New puzzle selects another included puzzle.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Look at the feedback after the action.
Learn from a sample situation
One value entered in an overlap serves two boards, so check the corresponding rows, columns and boxes of both. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
An important reminder
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
