General

Futoshiki is an exciting logic game that challenges players to fill in numbers on a grid using deduction and critical thinking. The goal of the game is to fill in the grid with the numbers given at the bottom of the screen with the conditions that are set. Futoshiki is different from other logic games in that it adds specific restrictions to the game, which makes it more complex and therefore more entertaining. Players must puzzle their way through grids of increasingly difficult puzzles that guarantee a satisfying sense of accomplishment at the end.

How to Play

Game Objective

The aim of Futoshiki is to fill the grid with the given set of numbers, according to the conditions specified. The goal is to fill in the grid with the correct number of digits – numbers that fit the stated range of numbers and don’t appear more than once. The conditions usually state which numbers can and cannot be placed and also have some extra restrictions between adjacent cells.

Gameplay

• Start by reading the given conditions. These are shown at the bottom of the grid, highlighting which numbers can and cannot be filled in each square.
• Futoshiki usually gives a few numbers at the start, but the puzzle must be solved with critical thinking and deduction.
• Use logical reasoning to fill the grid with the correct numbers according to the given clues and restrictions.
• The colors at the bottom of the squares indicate which numbers can be placed in that square.
• Different levels of difficulty adds to the challenge, though all follow the same rules.

Scoring

The game does not have any form of scoring. It is purely about the challenge and personal satisfaction.
