Unless I'm mistaken, there is a mistake in today's free Hitori
Two white 6 in col4

Based on the green cases, there are two white 6 in colum 4

Two black cells next to each other are not allowed - so you just toggled the logic. Your white one in the bottom line has to be black, because one of to attached ones has to be white.

Sorry, I should have been more explicit, the green only shows why the two 6 are white and should not be taken as black cases

The puzzle is correct. If you want to see the solution, press “Give up”. It will highlight differences from what you already had placed, too.

I hope this helps!

Imgur blocks access in the UK but I’ve now managed to see your picture. The pair of 14s forces the white 6 as you show, but that makes the 6 beneath them shaded, not white. Meanwhile, one of the pair of 6s must be white and the other shaded, which also makes the bottom 6 in your lefthand column shaded.

You can view the instructions for this puzzle type using the link in the player, or click ”Instructions” at the top of this page.
