Binary Puzzle: rules and examples

Choose a round of Binary Puzzle and settle into its rules. Fill a 6×6 grid with balanced zeroes and ones, no three equal neighbours, and no duplicate rows or columns. Use the example below to understand a decision. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

Choose from ten 6×6 puzzles. Undo changes or reveal a selected cell when you need help.

One thing to notice as you play

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Notice the feedback after each input.

What you are aiming for

Fill a 6×6 grid with balanced zeroes and ones, no three equal neighbours, and no duplicate rows or columns. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

The playing sequence

  1. Select an editable square.
  2. Enter 0 or 1; each line needs three of each.
  3. Avoid three consecutive equal values horizontally or vertically.
  4. Check puzzle validates balance, triples and unique lines.

Keyboard and screen controls

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

See how the rules apply

A row beginning 0 0 needs 1 next. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Balanced rows may still duplicate each other. Compare the situation with the worked example. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
