A useful example
A circle 7 may have an arrow containing 3 and 4 when the normal Sudoku rules also allow it. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
