How to play Binairo

  1. Tap a square to cycle blank, black, white, then blank. Or select a square and use Black, White or Erase. Given circles have a small diamond and cannot change.
  2. Fill half of every row and half of every column with black circles; the rest must be white. Never place three alike consecutively, horizontally or vertically.
  3. No two complete rows can be identical, and no two complete columns can be identical. All three rules must hold to finish.
  4. Check highlights rule conflicts, not whether an unfinished answer matches the solution. Undo reverses up to 200 edits, even after refreshing or completing a puzzle.
  5. Switch puzzles to keep separate progress. Restart asks before clearing only the current puzzle.

Controls

Tap or click to cycle a square. Keyboard: arrows move, B/1 sets black, W/2 sets white, Space cycles, Delete/Backspace/0 erases, and Z undoes. Screen buttons provide the same input and checking actions.

A few good moves

  • Two matching circles side by side force the next circle to be the other color.
  • When a line has all its black circles, fill its remaining squares white, and vice versa.
  • Compare nearly complete rows and columns to avoid identical patterns.

Each Binairo puzzle saves its grid, selected square and up to 200 undo steps in this browser. Switching puzzles keeps separate progress; restarting clears only the current puzzle. If storage is unavailable, progress remains only in the current page session.
