Hi,

In SudoCue, I selected the variant "Asterisk" and then generated a new puzzle. I know it's similar to "Center Dot," in that there's a sequence 1-9 hiding in there.

I just don't know what the pattern of the asterisk looks like? Can you make a "fake puzzle" with X's in those positions, maybe?

Or just point me to the instructions if I'm missing it.

Thanks,

Amy Grace

I will make sure the next version of SudoCue highlights these cells.
