Learn your way around 16x16 Sudoku

Read the aim of 16x16 Sudoku, then make your first move. Fill all cells with 1–9 and A–G; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Keep the instructions close while learning this activity. Look at what changes after your first action.

Practice with a purpose

Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Notice the feedback after each input.

The purpose of your moves

Fill all cells with 1–9 and A–G; do not repeat a symbol in any row, column or region. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Follow these playing steps

  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.

Getting comfortable with the controls

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. Check any mode label before starting.

Try this 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. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Look for the relevant detail.

A common point of confusion

Notes are reminders, not final entries. A full board only counts as complete when it satisfies every rule. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
