Your inputs
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. A new-round button replaces the current round.
Put the rules into context
The coloured region, not a conventional 3×3 box, defines the third no-repeat constraint. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Check the stated objective.
Notice this detail
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. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
