Understand the basics of 16x16 Sudoku

Make 16x16 Sudoku your next activity in the game library. Fill all cells with 1–9 and A–G; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Look at what changes after your first action.

Practice with a purpose

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Understand the aim

Fill all cells with 1–9 and A–G; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Keep the controls in easy reach.

From the start of a round

  1. Select an empty cell. The original clues cannot be edited.
  2. Choose a symbol from the number pad, or type it on a keyboard.
  3. Turn Notes on to record candidate symbols without committing an answer.
  4. Use Check entries to check your filled values. Hint reveals one value from the verified solution.
  5. Complete the board, or choose New puzzle for another board.

Making selections and moves

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. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

Work through an example

On one puzzle in this collection, row 1, column 1 has D in its solution. Read the clues on your current board before using that value; another puzzle can need a different entry. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.

Avoid this misunderstanding

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. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
