Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Rule of 45?

In standard Sudoku, every row, column, and 3Γ—3 box must contain digits 1 through 9 exactly once. The sum of 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9 is always 45. In Killer Sudoku, you can add up known cages inside a row and subtract from 45 to find the exact value of any cell sticking out.

How does the Easy 4x4 Mini-Grid work?

For beginners learning the dojo ropes, we offer a 4Γ—4 Mini-Grid mode. In 4Γ—4, digits 1 through 4 are used, and every row, column, and 2Γ—2 box sums to exactly 10 (1+2+3+4). It lets you build intuition with cage sums without feeling overwhelmed.
