How to play
- Fill the n×n grid with 1–n so each number appears once in every row and column.
- Each bold cage shows a target and operation: its numbers combine with that operation to make the target.
- Subtraction and division cages have two cells (larger minus/over smaller). A cage with just a number is filled with that number.
Practice sizes: Easy 4×4, Medium 5×5, Hard 6×6. Unique solution.
Select a cell, then tap a number or type it. Wrong cages are highlighted.
Tips & strategies
