An introduction to playing 6x6 Sudoku
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of 6x6 Sudoku. Fill all cells with 1–6; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Check the rule that explains your first action. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Give this approach a try
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.
The objective of a round
Fill all cells with 1–6; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.
Making your moves
- Select an empty cell. The original clues cannot be edited.
- Choose a symbol from the number pad, or type it on a keyboard.
- Turn Notes on to record candidate symbols without committing an answer.
- Use Check entries to check your filled values. Hint reveals one value from the verified solution.
- Complete the board, or choose New puzzle for another board.
Input guidance
Tap or click a cell and use the number pad. Keyboard: arrows select cells; digits (and A–G on 16×16) enter values; Backspace erases. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Check any mode label before starting.
A closer look at one example
Before filling a cell, compare the symbols already used in its row, column and 2 × 3 region. A candidate must be absent from all three. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
Notes are reminders, not final entries. A full board only counts as complete when it satisfies every rule. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
