Easy sudoku: building speed on a gentle grid
What is Sudoku?
Sudoku is a logic puzzle on a 9×9 grid divided into nine 3×3 boxes. Each row, column, and box must contain the digits 1 through 9 exactly once. No arithmetic is required—only deduction.
How to play
- Scan for obvious singles—cells where only one digit fits.
- Use notes to track candidates when several digits might work.
- Check the row, column, and box together before committing a number.
- Reset restores the original puzzle; New puzzle shuffles a fresh grid.
Easy Sudoku tips
Start with rows or columns that already have many digits filled in. Easy puzzles leave more givens, so you can often complete entire boxes without guessing.
