Nice concept.
When entering a wrong clue: instant error reply.
When puzzle is solved: no reaction and timer keeps on counting.

On android device.

One hour to solve a "master", manually of course....

I think it has 2 solutions...

The red square in box 6, from line of sight eliminations, must be one of r6c89.
Since there's alredy a red 4, it must r6c9 that's red.
Then since there's already a red 2, r6c9 must be 5 (and red).

That takes care of the numbers.
The missing colors were easy too ... "singles to the end".

.
It's just 3D Sudoku minus a block-type constraint in the 3rd dimension (colour, if you keep number as the value dimension).
Or 3D Latin Squares plus block constraints in the row and column dimensions.

So: not really revolutionary.

Aha, I did not read the rules fully.
Of each color there a 9 cells, some visible and some not visible.
All with 1 to 9 in them and all only 1 per row,col,box

Hi Hajime,

The puzzle above, did have a unique solution, but after trying 20 or so "master level" puzzles, it looks like about half of them really do have two solutions

They were "too easy" too ...
Fun, but not much of a challenge.

I liked the user interface

Cheers,
Blue.
