6x6 Sudoku: from controls to your first round
Open 6x6 Sudoku, check the instructions and begin a round. Fill all cells with 1–6; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Look at what changes after your first action. Identify the playing area and the controls you need. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Practice beyond the first move
Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Use the example to check your reasoning.
The objective of a round
Fill all cells with 1–6; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Start with a deliberate move.
Step by step
- Select an empty cell. The original clues cannot be edited.
- Choose a symbol from the number pad, or type it on a keyboard.
- Turn Notes on to record candidate symbols without committing an answer.
- Use Check entries to check your filled values. Hint reveals one value from the verified solution.
- Complete the board, or choose New puzzle for another board.
Choosing and moving on screen
Tap or click a cell and use the number pad. Keyboard: arrows select cells; digits (and A–G on 16×16) enter values; Backspace erases. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
An example to follow
On one puzzle in this collection, row 1, column 1 has 3 in its solution. Read the clues on your current board before using that value; another puzzle can need a different entry. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.
A common point of confusion
Notes are reminders, not final entries. A full board only counts as complete when it satisfies every rule. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
