Practice with a purpose
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.
Understand the aim
Shade the grid so every row and column matches its run-length clues. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- Cycle a square between filled, crossed and blank.
- Keep separate runs apart by at least one blank.
- Combine row and column deductions.
- Check puzzle verifies the finished grid.
Making selections and moves
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Use the control method described here for this activity. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A closer look at one example
Clue 2 1 requires a run of two, a blank separator, and a run of one. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Take a moment to compare.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Do not merge two separate runs. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
