Three useful habits

Find one clear move at a time

Start by looking for missing numbers, noting what could fit, and placing a number you're sure of. The full how-to guide shows how these habits lead to your next move.

01

Look

Check each row, column, and box for what is missing.

02

Note

Pencil in the numbers that could fit, so the next move stands out.

03

Place

Place one number you're sure of, then scan the grid again.

Free online practice

Leave and come back without losing your place

Learn the two beginner techniques

Optional game hints

Understand one logical next move

  1. Ask for a hint while playing a free puzzle.
  2. Read the steps calculated from your current board.
  3. Apply one number if you want, or keep solving on your own.

Hints ignore pencil notes. Applying a hint changes one cell, and that change can be undone.
