Takuzu
Takuzu (a.k.a. Binairo) is an entertaining puzzle game with simple rules. All you have to do is to fill a square field of a certain size with two digits (or colors) while following three simple rules:
- Each column and each row must be unique.
- Each row and each column must have an equal number of tiles of each digit.
- no more than two tiles with the same digit in a row (110001 is wrong, 110010 is right).
For an example, you can see my app Binario.
