Magic Square Emojis

Introduction

Magic Square Emojis is a logic puzzle where each of the digits 0 to 5 are represented by 6 separate emojis. The emojis are presented in a magic square grid whereby the sum of each row is given by the emoji in the right-hand column and the sum of each column is given by the emoji in the bottom row.

The arithmetic is modulo 6. This means that when the sum of two numbers is 6 or above, the answer is the remainder of that number when divided by 6. For example, 5+3=8 and 8 divided by 6 is 1 remainder 2. Therefore in modulo 6, 5+3=2. This ensures the answer will always be one of the digits represented by the emojis and is also what gives the puzzle a level of difficulty.

For example if 🧬 = 4, 🔑 = 3 and 🔗 = 1
then 🧬 + 🔑 = 🔗
(as 4 + 3 = 7 == 1 (modulo 6)).

Crack the code by touching on the emojis at the bottom of the screen. The aim is to work out the digit that each emoji represents with as few incorrect guesses as possible. A long press on the screen can be used to start a new game at any time.
