- Hint Arrows: Indicates rows/columns that can be completely filled based on the numbers alone.
- Auto-Fill X: Automatically places "X" marks in empty cells when a line's requirements are met.

About This Version
- This version is the same as the free software version and the Steam demo.
- It is based on a free title released over 10 years ago, now updated with modern support features.
Differences from the Full Version
- Contains roughly half the puzzles of the full version (though still over 1,500).
- There is a cooldown timer before the "HELP" function can be used.
- Save data from this version cannot be transferred to the Steam full version. (Note: The Steam demo version does support data transfer).
All puzzles are designed to be solvable without using "HELP." If you aren't in a hurry, this version offers plenty of gameplay on its own.
Regarding AI Usage
- Translation: All English text has been translated from Japanese using AI.
- Puzzle Design: Generative AI was used for approximately 10% of the initial concept sketches. It was used primarily for composition reference; no AI-generated images are used directly in the game.

2026/04/13 update
Fixed an issue where the resolution would revert to 1280x720 upon Windows startup or restart when playing in fullscreen mode.
Added a new "Auto-fill" support feature to quickly fill in confirmed lines.
