Equal diagonal digits are allowed. Dark digits are fixed clues; blue digits are your entries. Tap to select, then use the number keys; Clear erases. Hold to toggle pencil mode; repeat a candidate key to remove it. Sizes follow settings and room counts (up to 9); difficulty changes clues and deduction depth, never the rules.
