The challenge in front of you

Solve the Sudoku while each outside clue gives the sum strictly between 1 and 9 in that row or column. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

The order of play

  1. Select an editable cell.
  2. Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
  3. Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
  4. Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
  5. New puzzle selects another included puzzle.

Keyboard and screen controls

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. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

Put the rules into context

If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Verify the rule before continuing.

Avoid this misunderstanding

A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
