Easy
Not sure how to play? Each 9-by-9 square has to include the numbers 1-9. But you can’t repeat any individual number in the same 9-by-9 square or on the same line, whether it’s vertical or horizontal.
Medium
Hard
Killer
Killer sudoku is similar to the other levels in that each of the numbers 1-9 must fit into each 9-by-9 square. No number can be repeated more than once in the square or in a horizontal or vertical row.
The difference here: You might notice there aren’t a lot of numbers in the grid boxes to start, or any.
Instead, you are given groups of numbers in what’s known as a cage. The small number at the top left of each cage is the sum of the numbers in those boxes. For instance, if the cage’s number is 4 and it includes two boxes, the answer will be 3 and 1. But which one goes where?
Don’t forget, if you need help, there’s an “Assist” dropdown near the top right of the puzzle.
