Your goal
Complete five overlapping Sudoku boards. Every shared cell must satisfy both boards that use it. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Step by step

Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. Use the control method described here for this activity. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
A useful example
One value entered in an overlap serves two boards, so check the corresponding rows, columns and boxes of both. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
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. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
