How to play sudoku

  1. Fill the 9×9 grid so every row, every column and every 3×3 box contains the digits 1 to 9 exactly once.
  2. Tap a cell, then tap a number — or use the arrow keys and 1–9 on a desktop keyboard.
  3. Stuck? Turn on pencil notes (the N key) to jot the candidates for a cell before committing to one.
  4. Error checking is on by default and flags a digit the moment it contradicts the solution. Turn it off for a purist run.
  5. Finish the daily board to extend your streak, then share your time. The daily puzzle resets at 00:00 UTC.

Difficulty, and what it actually means

Difficulty here is the number of clues left on the board after the generator finishes digging: easy keeps 40–50 givens, medium 30–39, and hard 23–29. Fewer givens means longer chains of deduction before the next digit falls out — but never a guess. Every board is checked by a solver that stops as soon as it finds a second solution, so a puzzle is only published once it has been proved to have exactly one.

Daily sudoku, one board for everyone

The daily board is generated from the date itself, so every visitor on a given UTC day solves the identical puzzle — your time is directly comparable to anyone else's, and the share block carries your time and difficulty without spoiling a single digit.
