How to play

Goal
Fill each room with adjacent equal-number pairs and satisfy the circled border sums.
How it ends
Fill every cell, use each room label twice in an adjacent pair, satisfy every sum and avoid four equal values in a 2×2 block; mistakes can always be undone.
Record
The fastest first unaided solve of each chart is recorded.
Worked visual example for Kazunori
Worked example. See the rule happen, then follow the numbered rules below.
  1. A room with 2K cells uses every number from 1 through K exactly twice: four cells use 1 and 2; six cells use 1, 2 and 3.
  2. The two copies of each number must share an edge inside that room. Equal values may touch across room borders.
  3. Each circle adds only the two cells beside its edge. It does not sum a whole room.
  4. Nowhere may a 2×2 block contain four equal numbers, even across room borders.
  5. Choose a number and tap a cell, or use arrow keys and number keys. Clear, Undo and Redo change one cell entry at a time. Restart keeps the first clock running.

Tips for Kazunori

  • Start with small rooms A two-cell room has only one label, so both cells must be 1.
  • Use the border sums An entered neighbour can determine the other cell of a circled sum.
  • Check across borders Four equal cells in a 2×2 block are forbidden even when they belong to different rooms.

Questions about this game

Can equal numbers touch across rooms?

Yes. Each room has its own adjacent pairs. Only a full2×2 block of four equal numbers is forbidden.

Can a room reuse one number for two pairs?

No. Each label from 1 through half the room size appears exactly twice.

Does Restart reset the clock?

No. The first clock keeps running. Replays after a finish are Practice and preserve the first time.

Cell entries and Undo save in this browser. The first clock starts when a chart is selected. Reloaded attempts stay local; replay is Practice and preserves the first finish.

About Kazunori

Kazunori joins room-sized number pairs with sums along their borders. Room shapes, pair placement and the rule against four equal values in a square work together.

The 96 charts and worked example are original. Four open shelves run from 4×4 to 10×10.
