    It’s a math based puzzle commonly known as Sudoku, the rules are that each 3x3 square can only have numbers 1-9 with no repeats, same with each 9x1 row or column. A set of numbers are placed as a starter pattern (you can solve from blank but it’s significantly more challenging) and you need to fill in the remaining numbers.
