Skyscrapers
One building of each height per row and column; the clues say how many you can see.
About Skyscrapers
In Skyscrapers each row and column holds one building of every height, and the clues around the edge tell how many buildings you can see from that side — taller buildings hide the shorter ones behind them.

How to play
- Fill each cell with a height 1–n; each height appears once in every row and column.
- A clue around the edge is how many buildings you can see from there — taller buildings hide shorter ones behind them.
- With n = 4, seeing 4 means 1, 2, 3, 4 from near to far; seeing 1 means the nearest is the tallest.
Unique solution; edges without a clue have no constraint.
Select a cell and enter a height. Clues turn green when satisfied.
Tips & strategies
- A clue of 1 means the tallest building is right next to it.
- A clue equal to the size means heights increase one by one.
- Big clues force small buildings close to the edge.
