How to play Skyscrapers
Each square holds a skyscraper whose height is 1 to N (the grid size). Every row and column contains each height exactly once. The numbers around the edge tell you how many buildings you can see looking into that row or column from that side — a taller building hides every shorter one behind it.
- Tap a square (or use arrow keys) and type a height or use the keypad.
- Notes (✎ / N / Shift+digit) for candidates; Undo/Redo, Hint, Check and Pause are below the grid.
- Edge clues turn green when their line is complete and correct, and red when they're broken.
Tips
A clue of 1 means the tallest building stands right at that edge. A clue of N means the heights rise 1, 2, 3… in order. A clue of 2 next to the edge can never start with the second-tallest… unless the tallest is directly behind it. Bigger clues push the tallest building further away. Every puzzle has exactly one solution.
