Fill a 4×4 Latin square and satisfy every cage arithmetic target. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Making your moves
- Select a square and enter 1–4.
- Combine all cage digits using its shown operation.
- Subtraction uses the absolute difference.
- Check puzzle verifies the entire grid.
Using the playing area
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Look at the feedback after the action.
Try this example
A two-cell 6× cage contains 2 and 3 in a 1–4 puzzle. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A mistake to avoid
A correct cage total does not permit duplicate digits in a row. A different version of the game may use a different rule. 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.
