Sudoku Guru - Classic Sudoku is a digital take on the iconic number-placement puzzle that has captivated millions worldwide since its rise to fame in the 1980s. The objective is simple yet challenging: fill a 9x9 grid with digits from 1 to 9, ensuring each row, column, and 3x3 subgrid contains every number exactly once.
Ready to become a Sudoku Guru? Try these beginner-friendly strategies from top solvers to improve your skills:
Start with the Obvious: Look for rows, columns, or 3x3 subgrids with only one or two missing numbers. For example, if a row is missing a 5 and a 6, and one of those cells intersects a subgrid that already has a 6, you know the other cell must be a 5.
Use Pencil Marks: Sudoku Guru’s pencil mark feature lets you jot down possible numbers for each cell, helping you keep track of candidates without cluttering the grid.
Scan the Grid: If you’re stuck, shift your focus to another part of the grid. Scanning rows, columns, and subgrids can reveal new opportunities to place numbers.
Eliminate Candidates: As advised by World Sudoku Championship winner Thomas Snyder, focus on numbers that appear frequently in a row or column. Eliminate these as candidates for other cells to narrow down possibilities.
Practice Regularly: The more puzzles you solve, the faster you’ll recognize patterns. Start with Easy or Medium levels and gradually progress to Expert or Guru for a real challenge.
