See It in Action

Click to place 0 or 1 — no three identical in a row, equal counts, no two rows alike

How to Play

  1. Find any pair of identical adjacent digits — the cell on either side of the pair is forced to the opposite digit
  2. Count 0s and 1s in a line: if one digit fills exactly half the cells, all remaining cells get the other digit
  3. Compare near-complete rows or columns: if two differ in only one cell, place the opposite digit there
  4. Repeat these three techniques iteratively until the entire grid is filled

Pro Tips

A pair like "0 0" forces 1 on both its immediate neighbours — use this constantly

When a row has its allowed maximum of one digit, the rest of the row is entirely the other digit

Check for near-duplicate rows early — fixing them can cascade into many other deductions
