About Extreme Sudoku

Solvers who enjoy advanced elimination and are comfortable taking their time.

Start with complete candidate notes. After singles and pairs, compare candidate positions across rows and columns. If a pattern is uncertain, use a hint instead of guessing and inspect why that placement works.

How to play

  1. Fill each empty cell with a digit from 1 to 9.
  2. Use each digit once in every row, column and 3×3 box.
  3. Use Notes to record candidates; use Hint if you get stuck. Your current puzzle saves automatically in this browser.

On a keyboard, use the arrow keys to move between cells and N to toggle notes. Read the beginner guide or try a worked naked-single example.
