Practice beyond the first move
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Use the example to check your reasoning.
The goal to keep in mind
Fill each row, column and irregular coloured nine-cell region with 1–9 once. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.
Step by step
- Select an editable cell.
- 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. Use the control method described here for this activity. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Work through an example
The coloured region, not a conventional 3×3 box, defines the third no-repeat constraint. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.
A mistake to avoid
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Compare the situation with the worked example. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
