How to play

1. Fill the grid. Tap any cell to open the number picker, then choose a height from 1 to N.
2. Latin square rule. Each row and column must contain every height exactly once — no duplicates.
3. Visibility clues. Numbers on the edges tell you how many skyscrapers you can see looking in from that side. A taller building hides all shorter ones behind it.
4. Quick rules. Clue 1 means the tallest building sits on the edge. Clue N means heights climb 1→2→3→…→N from that edge.
5. Use hints wisely. Each level gives you 3 hints that reveal a correct cell. Fewer hints = more stars.
