Choosing and moving on screen
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Work through an example
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
Avoid this misunderstanding
