A fast four-by-four logic grid with nowhere to hide.
How to play Mini Sudoku
Mini Sudoku shrinks the classic logic puzzle down to a four-by-four grid that most players can finish in a couple of minutes. You fill in the missing numbers so that 1 through 4 each appear exactly once in every row, column and two-by-two box.
- Look at the given numbers already filled into the grid.
- Tap an empty cell to cycle it through the numbers 1 to 4.
- Make sure each row, column and two-by-two box ends up with 1 through 4 exactly once.
- Submit the completed grid to see your score.
Scoring
Your score reflects the share of cells that match the correct solution, scaled to a total out of 100. A fully correct grid earns the full score for the day.
Tips
- Scan each two-by-two box first โ with only four numbers, missing values are easy to spot.
- Work the row or column with the most given numbers before the emptier ones.
- If a cell has only one possible number left, fill it immediately before moving on.
- Double-check boxes last, since row and column fixes can accidentally repeat a number there.
