After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.

The objective of a round

Fill all cells with 1–9 and A–G; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Start with a deliberate move.

Work through the instructions

  1. Select an empty cell. The original clues cannot be edited.
  2. Choose a symbol from the number pad, or type it on a keyboard.
  3. Turn Notes on to record candidate symbols without committing an answer.
  4. Use Check entries to check your filled values. Hint reveals one value from the verified solution.
  5. Complete the board, or choose New puzzle for another board.

The controls to know

Tap or click a cell and use the number pad. Keyboard: arrows select cells; digits (and A–G on 16×16) enter values; Backspace erases. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. A new-round button replaces the current round.

A closer look at one example

On one puzzle in this collection, row 1, column 3 has 2 in its solution. Read the clues on your current board before using that value; another puzzle can need a different entry. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.

Pay attention to this rule

Notes are reminders, not final entries. A full board only counts as complete when it satisfies every rule. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
