Logic

Work out the one answer from clues. No guessing needed.

NonogramMediumUse the number clues to fill the grid and reveal a hidden picture.Mini SudokuEasyA 6×6 Sudoku: fill every row, column and 2×3 box with 1 to 6. Mistakes show only when you press Check.Binary BalanceMediumFill the grid with circles and squares: balanced rows and columns, never three alike in a row.Crown CourtMediumPlace one crown per row, column and region — and keep them apart.Gallery GuardHardPlace guards so every open cell is seen, no two guards see each other, and each numbered wall has that many beside it.Skyline TowersHardFill the grid with building heights so each one is used once per row and column, and the edge numbers match what you can see.

Route

Find the path: for water, a line, an arrow or a beam of light.

Spatial

Fit shapes together: pieces, polyominoes and falling blocks.

Machine

Poke a mechanism until every part ends up where it should.

Turn every light off.Ring LockHardTurn three linked rings until every spoke shows the same symbol on all three.Symmetry FixEasyFlip the tiles that break the pattern's mirror symmetry, using as few taps as you can.GearworksHardMount gears on the axles so every pin turns the right way at the right speed. Keep the red gears still.

Number and memory

Do the arithmetic, or remember the pattern.

Number ForgeEasyCombine the numbers with + − × ÷ until one of them is the target. Any route that gets there counts.Beat MatchEasyWatch the pads light up, then repeat the pattern. One more step each round.

Sorting and planning

Plan several moves ahead and tidy the board in as few as you can.

Color Sort ShelfEasySort the shelves until every colour has a shelf of its own. Colours come with shapes.Crate ShiftMediumPush every crate onto a target. Crates can be pushed but never pulled, so plan each move.
