Futoshiki (Daily Mail)
Fill the grid so every row and column holds each number once and every sign holds.
Every day: One dated futoshiki a day, the same for every reader. New puzzle: Once a day; the start screen shows the date.
Futoshiki is the Daily Mail's daily inequality puzzle. Each row and column holds every number once, and the greater-than and less-than signs between squares must all be true.
About Futoshiki (Daily Mail)
Futoshiki is one of about thirty puzzles on the Daily Mail games page, free in the browser with ads. Each one opens on a start screen that carries the day's date, and every reader gets the same puzzle that day.
The grid is a Latin square: every row and column contains each number once. Between some neighbouring squares sit greater-than or less-than signs, and the numbers you place must obey them. A few numbers may be given to start.
The puzzle opens behind the Daily Mail's consent screen, where you either accept personalised ads or buy an ad-free subscription. It suits readers who like a futoshiki with their news and want a fresh one every day.
How to play Futoshiki (Daily Mail)
- Open Futoshiki on the Daily Mail games page.
- Place numbers so no row or column repeats one.
- Check every greater-than and less-than sign between squares.
- Fill the whole grid so every sign holds.
Tips
- A square that is less than another can never hold the largest number, and vice versa.
- Follow chains of signs: a run of three rising signs pins down a lot.
