Step by step

- New puzzle selects another included puzzle.
Controls
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. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
A circle 7 may have an arrow containing 3 and 4 when the normal Sudoku rules also allow it. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
