Sudoku Rules

Simple to learn, infinite to master

01

The grid

The grid consists of 81 cells — 9 rows, 9 columns and 9 square 3×3 regions.

02

The goal

Fill every empty cell with a number from 1 to 9 until the grid is complete.

03

Rows

Every horizontal row must contain all numbers from 1 to 9 exactly once, without repetition.

04

Columns

Every vertical column must also contain all numbers from 1 to 9 exactly once.

05

Regions

Every region (3×3 square) must contain all numbers from 1 to 9 exactly once.

06

The solution

There is only one valid solution per grid. No luck — pure logic only.

Pro tip: Start with cells that have only one possibility. Use Notes mode to track candidates — essential for hard levels.

Tips & Strategies

Level up fast with these proven techniques

🎯

Naked Single

If a cell has only one possible candidate, that number must go there. Always start by identifying these cells — they often unlock the rest of the grid.

🔍

Hidden Single

A number that can only go in one place within a row, column or box must be placed there — even if that cell appears to have multiple candidates.

✏️

Use Pencil Marks

Enable Notes mode and write all possible candidates in every empty cell. By eliminating impossible candidates step by step, the solution appears naturally.

🚫

Row/Column Elimination

If a number already exists in a row or column, it cannot appear again. Mentally cross it off all other cells in that row and column.

📦

Pointing Pairs

In a 3×3 box, if a number can only appear on one row or column, eliminate it from other boxes on that same row or column.

👯

Naked Pairs

If two cells in the same unit contain only the same two candidates, those numbers are reserved for those cells and can be eliminated from all other cells in the unit.

🧩

Eliminate, Don't Guess

Instead of guessing, eliminate impossibilities. Every certainty you place reduces the options for neighbouring cells — work methodically box by box.

Regular Practice

Start with Easy to master basic techniques, then gradually move to Medium and Hard. Consistency is the key to progress.
