Help when you want it, and only then

Stuck? A hint fills in the next cell a careful solver would find. Wrong digits are flagged first, so a hint never builds on a mistake.

  • Auto-pencil fills in every candidate with one long press
  • Pencil notes clean themselves as you place digits
  • Zen mode hides the timer and the mistake counter

How to play Sudoku

Fill the 9×9 grid so that the digits 1 to 9 appear exactly once in each of these three places.

Every row

Each horizontal line holds 1 to 9 with no repeats.

Every column

Each vertical line holds 1 to 9 with no repeats.

Every 3×3 box

Each of the nine boxes holds 1 to 9 with no repeats.

Start where a row, column or box is nearly full: if eight digits are already placed, the ninth has only one place to go. When nothing is obvious, pencil in the candidates for each cell and look for a cell left with a single option. Try it on the board above.
