Your goal
Solve the Sudoku while each outside clue gives the sum strictly between 1 and 9 in that row or column. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step

- Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.

- Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
- 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. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the controls nearby.
Watch out for this
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Compare the situation with the worked example. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
