Making selections and moves
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. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
See how the rules apply
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. Verify the rule before continuing.
Check this before moving on
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Check the rule before repeating the action. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
