How to read an archived puzzle

Each archived date preserves its published clues, valid country choices and lowest-scoring answers. Use it to review that saved puzzle.

Read both clues

Match a row clue with a column clue, then inspect the countries listed for that cell. The candidate count shows which intersections had fewer valid choices.

Read the strategy guide

Understand cell minimums

Countries are ranked by population within each cell; the most populous valid answer has the lowest score. Minimums are calculated separately, so a country may repeat across the reference answers. A playable board permits each country once, so these minimums do not guarantee a valid nine-cell solution.
