What Is Sudoku, Anyway?
If you’ve heard the word but never really understood what Sudoku is, here’s a quick explanation:
Sudoku is a number puzzle based on logic, not math. The traditional version has a 9x9 grid made up of 9 smaller 3x3 boxes. The goal is simple: fill in every empty square so that each row, each column, and each 3x3 box contains all the digits from 1 to 9 exactly once.
No math, no calculations—just pattern recognition and logic.
Because our very easy Sudoku book provides many of the numbers already filled in, beginners get a head start and can focus on learning the rules and patterns without frustration.
Tips for Sudoku Beginners
If this is your first Sudoku book or you’ve tried puzzles before and felt stuck, don’t worry! Here are plenty of beginner-friendly tips to help you start solving with confidence:
1. Start with the Obvious
In a very easy Sudoku, many of the numbers are already filled in. Start by scanning each row, column, and box to find cells that are missing only one number. Fill those in first!
2. Use the “Process of Elimination”
If you know a certain number can’t go in a row or box, eliminate it mentally (or lightly in pencil). What remains is often your answer.
For example, if you’re looking for where to place a 5 in a box and two of the rows already have a 5, then it must go in the only available cell.
3. Use Pencil or Erasable Ink
Mistakes are part of learning. That’s why it helps to use a pencil or erasable pen. Try out a number lightly, and if it doesn’t work out later, simply erase and try again.
4. Work on One Number at a Time
Pick a number, like 1, and go through the entire puzzle looking only for places where 1 can go. Then move on to 2, and so on. This narrows your focus and prevents feeling overwhelmed.
5. Focus on Boxes with the Most Clues
Start with the 3x3 boxes that already have the most numbers filled in. These are the easiest to complete and can give you the clues you need to fill in adjacent rows and columns.
6. Mark Up the Grid
Use small pencil notes to jot possible numbers in each empty square. As you fill in more of the puzzle, you’ll be able to erase the ones that don’t fit.
This technique, known as “candidate marking,” is extremely helpful—especially when the puzzles become more challenging.
7. Take Breaks if Needed
Sudoku is a logic puzzle, not a speed test. If you feel stuck, take a break and come back later. Often, a fresh look helps you spot something you missed the first time.
8. Stay Consistent with Patterns
Once you notice a pattern, such as a number that’s missing in every column or row, keep your eyes open—it will often help you fill in multiple squares quickly.
9. Practice Makes Perfect
This book’s 100 puzzles give you plenty of opportunity to get familiar with how Sudoku works. Don’t worry if you don’t “get it” right away. Like anything, the more you practice, the more natural it becomes.
