Sudoku guides

Every Sudoku guide in one place — the rules, the terms, the variants, a worked hard-solve, and an FAQ.

This is the Sudoku corner of the guides library. Each page below stands alone and answers one question — the rules of a variant, what a term means, how a tough grid actually comes apart, or the practical stuff people ask before they start. There is no required order: pick the question that is yours. You can play Sudoku by WizusLabs free, offline, and without an account. If you would rather read the concise in-game walkthroughs, those live on the game site and are linked in the second group below.

Sudoku guides

A plain-language glossary of sudoku terms: cell, region, candidate, naked and hidden singles, pairs and triples, pointing pairs, box-line reduction, X-Wing, swordfish, unique rectangle, cage, and more.

Classic vs killer sudoku

Classic and killer sudoku compared: the shared rules, what cages and sums add, how solving strategy differs, and which variant suits which kind of player.

Sudoku variants explained

A guide to the non-classic sudoku variants — Mini, Irregular (Jigsaw), X-Sudoku, Windoku, Even-Odd, and 12x12 — the extra rule each one adds and a tip for solving it.

Solving a hard sudoku, step by step

A single annotated solve: watch a tough board open up move by move — a hidden single, a naked single, a pointing pair, box-line reduction, and when to reach for an X-Wing.
