Work through the instructions

  1. Select an editable cell.

Your inputs

Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

Put the rules into context

If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.

Where a round can go wrong

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. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
