3. Step 3: Row 6 - the clue 8 fills the whole line. (8 filled)

Tips for 8x8 grids

On a 8x8 grid, start with every row and column whose clues cover more than half its length. The overlap fixes the middle cells, and each filled cell gives you a head start in the crossing line.

Where players go wrong on Level 29

• The longest line is Row 5 with the clue 8, and it is a full line: its blocks and gaps add up to the whole length, so fill it first and let it anchor the lines that cross it.
• Row 7 has the fewest filled cells (2). Cross out its empty cells early; they keep the columns honest.
• The last line the logic finishes is Row 7. If you are stuck there, every other line is already done, so recount its clue 1 1.
