  3. Read the edgesMarks between adjacent cells tell you whether those two must match or differ.
  4. Distinct completed linesNo two completed rows may be identical, and no two completed columns may be identical.

Before your first board

Find a reason for the next symbol

On a 6×6 board, each row and column needs three suns and three moons. Never place three matching symbols consecutively or repeat a completed row or column. A match mark joins equal symbols; a differ mark joins opposites.

Try a small pattern

Sun, blank, sun must become sun, moon, sun. The middle cannot be another sun: that would make three. The same pattern works down a column.

Do not fill a quota at random

A row needing two more moons does not tell you which two squares take them. Look for a triple, an edge mark, or a completed symbol count before tapping.

One puzzle, every decision explained follows a real board from eleven starting clues to its last square.
