How to play

What is Kropki Sudoku?

Kropki Sudoku is a Sudoku variant where, in addition to the standard row, column and box rules, a clue number sits outside each row and column. That clue gives the sum of the digits strictly between the 1 and the highest digit (N) in that row or column - like the filling of a sandwich whose crusts are 1 and N.

How do I play Kropki Sudoku?

Tap an empty cell to select it, then tap a digit on the number pad to place it. Every row, column and box must contain each digit exactly once, and the digits between the 1 and the N in each row and column must add up to the outside clue. Use Notes mode to pencil in candidates and Hint to reveal a correct cell.
