About 6x6 Sudoku

Mini Sudoku uses a 6x6 grid split into six boxes, each two rows tall and three columns wide. You place the digits 1 to 6. The rules are the same as the full game, just smaller. It is a quick puzzle and a gentle way to learn.

How to play

Fill the grid so every row, every column and every 2x3 box contains each digit from 1 to 6 exactly once. Some cells are filled in to start, and there is only one correct solution.

Tap a cell, then tap a number. Turn on Notes to pencil in possible digits, and use Undo if you change your mind. A digit that breaks the solution is shown in red. On a keyboard, use the arrow keys to move, the number keys to fill, N for notes, H for a hint and Z to undo.

Tips for this level

Remember the boxes are 2x3, not square. Each box covers two rows and three columns.
With only six digits, count what is missing from a row or column and the answer is often immediate.
Once this feels easy, move up to Easy Sudoku on the full 9x9 grid.
