A careful first round

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

Your goal

Fill a 6×6 grid with balanced zeroes and ones, no three equal neighbours, and no duplicate rows or columns. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Step by step

1. Select an editable square.
2. Enter 0 or 1; each line needs three of each.
3. Avoid three consecutive equal values horizontally or vertically.
4. Check puzzle validates balance, triples and unique lines.

Controls

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

A useful example

A row beginning 0 0 needs 1 next. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.

Watch out for this

Balanced rows may still duplicate each other. Compare the situation with the worked example. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
