Complete the squareHow to play picture sudoku & latin squares
- Select an empty square, then choose an object from the palette. Pieces marked with a lock are starting clues and stay in place.
- Place each object exactly once in every row and column. On a 4×4 board, every outlined 2×2 box must also contain one of each object.
- Compare the remaining possibilities until the board is full. Use Clear, Undo or Hint whenever you need to rethink a square.
Look for the missing object
If a row needs an apple, lemon and bowl, and already contains an apple and a lemon, the remaining square needs a bowl. Then check that column for another deduction. On a 4×4 board, use the outlined boxes as a third set of clues.

Before your next puzzle
Are the 3×3 boards sudoku?
They are Latin squares: each object appears once per row and column, without smaller boxes. The 4×4 boards add 2×2 boxes and follow the rules of a small picture sudoku.
Do the colors matter?
No. Every object has a written name and a distinct shape. Follow the names and positions; you do not have to tell similar colors apart to solve a board.
