Give this approach a try

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Keep the objective visible.

Your goal

Solve the Sudoku while each outside clue gives the sum strictly between 1 and 9 in that row or column. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Step by step

  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.

Making selections and moves

Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. Use the control method described here for this activity. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

A closer look at one example

If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Notice the change in the playing area.

A common point of confusion

A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Check the rule before repeating the action. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
