Skyscrapers Puzzle Generator

Creates skyscrapers puzzles: every row and column contains towers of heights 1 to N exactly once, and each edge clue tells how many towers are visible from that side — taller towers hide shorter ones behind them. Clues that are not needed are blanked while a solver keeps the solution unique. Solve on the page with checking and hints, print, or export PNG/SVG.

Runs 100% in your browser — your puzzles never leave your device.

Notes

  • Rules: fill the grid as a Latin square; a tower is visible from an edge if every tower before it in that line is shorter, and the clue counts the visible towers.
  • Every puzzle is verified with a backtracking solver to have exactly one solution before it is shown.
  • Difficulty controls how many clues remain: easy shows all edge clues plus a few given cells, hard blanks every clue the solver can prove redundant.
  • Runs 100% in your browser — your words and puzzles never leave your device.
