What This Game Is
Unequal is a self-contained logic puzzle built around one clear objective. Each new board gives you a fresh problem to solve, so it works well for quick sessions and repeated play.
Complete the latin square in accordance with the > signs.
How to Play
Unequal shares much of its control system with Solo. To play Unequal, simply click the mouse in any empty square and then type a digit or letter on the keyboard to fill that square. If you make a mistake, click the mouse in the incorrect square and press Space to clear it again (or use the Undo feature).
Most puzzles in this collection reward deduction more than speed. Focus on the most limited choices first, use the clues to narrow the board, and avoid guesses unless the puzzle mode clearly expects them.
Beginner Tips
- Start with the area that has the strongest clue or the fewest legal options.
- Use marks, notes, or temporary indicators if the puzzle supports them.
- Try to preserve flexibility instead of committing too early when multiple moves look possible.
- If the board gets messy, restart a fresh puzzle and apply what you learned from the first run.
