Sudoku FAQ

What techniques do I need for medium sudoku?

Solid singles plus pencil marks. Keep candidates in the tight areas, and add locked candidates: when a digit inside a box is confined to one row or column, it can be erased from the rest of that line. The Hint button demonstrates each step on your actual board.

How long should a medium sudoku take?

Around 10–20 minutes is typical. If easy puzzles have started to feel automatic, medium is the everyday sweet spot — real resistance, yet never any guessing.

Why do I get stuck on medium sudoku puzzles?

Almost always because a single is hiding in a region you have not rescanned. Sweep each digit 1–9 across the whole grid again before reaching for anything fancy; if nothing turns up, tidy your notes and look for locked candidates. A logical next step always exists.
