Mini sudoku for beginners

In the 4-by-4 game, every row, column, and 2-by-2 box contains 1, 2, 3, and 4 exactly once.

Worked example

A row containing 1, 3, and 4 is missing 2. Before placing it, check that its column and box also allow 2.

Try it step by step

1. Mini Sudoku

   Fill every row, column, and box with 1, 2, 3, and 4. Tap a square, then a number.

2. Inequality Grid

   Use each number once per row and column and obey the greater-than clues.

3. Magic Squares

   Fill the blanks so rows, columns, and diagonals have the same sum.

A useful hint

Use elimination instead of guessing. If a square has two candidates, look elsewhere for a square with only one.
