Give this approach a try
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Use the example to check your reasoning.
What counts as success
Solve the Sudoku and make the digits on each arrow path sum to the digit in its circle. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
How a round unfolds
- Select an editable cell.
- Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
- Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
- Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
- New puzzle selects another included puzzle.
Using the playing area
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. Use one clear input at a time.
Put the rules into context
A circle 7 may have an arrow containing 3 and 4 when the normal Sudoku rules also allow it. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Read the matching step again.
Keep this in mind
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.
