Understand the basics of Sandwich Sudoku

Something to practise

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Notice the feedback after each input.

What you need to achieve

Solve the Sudoku while each outside clue gives the sum strictly between 1 and 9 in that row or column. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

The order of play

  1. Select an editable cell.
  2. Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
  3. Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
  4. Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
  5. New puzzle selects another included puzzle.

The controls to know

Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Check any mode label before starting.

An example to follow

If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.

Where a round can go wrong

A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
