The goal is to fill the nine 3×3 grids with the numbers of 1 to 9 each and exclusively for the whole row and column. The concept itself is pretty simple but there are various difficulty levels that make it quite a challenge.

You may solve the easy levels by simply eliminating all other possibilities but this is not possible in hard or impossible mode. You start with fewer numbers in the grids and have to think around the corner to make it. Quite a challenge. Portable Sudoku does not require installation and can be stored on an usb stick for instance.

The game is automatically saved when you exit it and it has some modes that make life just a bit easier. Check mode checks the numbers that you have entered thus far. Solve game on the other hand solves the complete game which could be nice if you are stuck and can’t continue on your own. The download is only 400k in size and available for windows.

You probably have not heard about it so here is an explanation of Sudoku:

Each Sudoku has a unique solution that can be reached logically without guessing. A game consists of a big 9×9 square that is divided into 9 3×3 squares. Every row and every column must have every number from 1 to 9 listed once as must every 3×3 square.

The Web Sudoku website has lots of those puzzles with varying difficulty levels starting with easy and ending at evil. I suggest you start with an easy one and move on if you understand the conecept and solved some easy ones.
