Killer Sudoku: how a round works
Try Killer Sudoku at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Fill rows, columns and boxes with 1–9 once. Cage digits cannot repeat and must add to their clue. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
This collection contains 8 puzzles. Progress is saved in this browser. The same puzzle can appear again; the collection is not labelled with calibrated difficulty levels.
Build familiarity through play
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.
What you are aiming for
Fill rows, columns and boxes with 1–9 once. Cage digits cannot repeat and must add to their clue. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Check the rules when you are unsure.
The playing sequence
- Select an editable cell.
- Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
- Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
- Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
- New puzzle selects another included puzzle.
Input guidance
Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
A useful example
A two-cell cage labelled 3 holds 1 and 2; a one-cell cage fixes its own value. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.
One detail worth checking
A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Compare the situation with the worked example. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
