How to play
Fill the grid so that every row, every column and every 3 by 3 box holds the digits 1 to 9 once each. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, and you can always reach it by logic without guessing.
- Tap a cell, then a number. With Notes on, numbers go in as small pencil marks instead.
- Hint points you to the next step: first where to look, then the full reasoning.
- Stars: one for solving, one for no hints, one for no mistakes.
- Keys: 1 to 9 place a digit, Shift + digit adds a note, N turns notes on or off, F fills in every note, arrow keys move, Backspace or Delete erases, Z undoes, H shows a hint, P pauses, M turns the music on or off and Esc closes a hint.
Techniques
Lumenine: sudoku under the fireworks
Lumenine is a free sudoku game (also called number place). Fill the grid so every row, column and box holds 1 to 9 once each. Every puzzle is made fresh by the game, has exactly one solution and can be solved by logic alone. Its difficulty comes from the hardest technique it takes: Easy puzzles need only singles, while Master puzzles need chains.
