Sudoku Mini

Sudoku Mini condenses classic Sudoku logic into a smaller grid. Fill every empty cell so each row, column, and outlined region contains every allowed number exactly once.

Select an empty square and review the values already present in its row, column, and box.

Choose the only legal number, or leave the cell while you inspect another constraint.

Complete the board without duplicates; the puzzle is solved when every placement is valid.

Click an open cell, then choose a number button or use the matching keyboard digit. Select erase when you need to revise an uncertain entry.

Tap a blank square and use the large number pad below the board. Zoom is unnecessary; keep the full grid visible to compare all three constraints.

Fast, accurate completion produces the best result. Errors or unnecessary corrections may add penalties, while a clean logical solve protects both time and score.

Fewer given numbers create longer chains of deduction. Cells with several candidates require cross-checking regions rather than relying on a single row.

Scan for rows or columns that are missing only one value before tackling ambiguous cells.

For each number, check which square remains possible inside every outlined box.

Revisit unresolved areas after a confirmed placement creates a new single candidate.

Guessing into a two-candidate cell can hide a contradiction until much later.

Checking rows but ignoring the smaller region allows a duplicate that looks locally plausible.
