Duet is ready

Fill every square with a dot or a ring. Every row, column and walled room is half and half, never three alike in a line. An = joins two squares that match, an × two that differ.

About Duet

Duet is a free daily logic grid from Mind Loft. Fill every square with a dot or a ring so that every row, every column and every walled room holds exactly half of each, with never three alike in a line. An = mark between two squares says they match, an × says they differ.

It is a balanced binary puzzle, the family sometimes called binairo or takuzu, with walled rooms that each have to balance too. Every board has a single solution you can always reach by logic, with no guessing. A square that breaks a rule turns red, but a square that is simply wrong is never flagged, and a clean solve scores a perfect 10 with the daily leaderboard decided on the clock.

A new board drops every day at midnight Eastern: 6×6 early in the week, 8×8 from Thursday, and a 10×10 Sunday Edition. No app, no signup, play free in your browser. More grid logic: try Plot, Hedge and Polka.
