Binary logic

Duo

Fill a square grid with suns and moons. Every row and column holds as many of each, no three equal symbols touch in a line, and the = and × signs tie neighbours together. Each grid has exactly one answer, waiting to be deduced.

Free in the browser, no account needed.

  1. Fill every cell with a sun or a moon.
  2. Each row and each column holds as many suns as moons.
  3. No more than two equal symbols may sit next to each other in a row or column.
  4. An = sign between two cells means they match; an × sign means they differ.
  5. Locked symbols are given. Every puzzle has exactly one solution.

  1. Balance the grid. Every row and column needs as many suns as moons, and never three equal symbols in a line.
  2. Read the signs. An = joins two equal neighbours, an × two different ones. Tap a cell to cycle sun, moon and empty.

  • Tap a cell to cycle it: sun, moon, empty
  • Arrow keys move, Space or Enter cycles, S or 1 sets a sun, M or 2 a moon, Backspace or 0 clears
  • H for a hint

Easy and medium grids are 6 by 6, and easy gives more symbols and signs. Hard grids are 8 by 8, and expert grids are 10 by 10 with few givens. Every puzzle has exactly one solution; up to hard, logic alone gets you there.
