Sudoku Steps: Learn & Solve

Sudoku Steps teaches you to solve, not to guess.

Every puzzle is graded by the hardest human technique it needs. When you get stuck, Sudoku Steps never fills in a cell for you. Instead it draws the next technique on your own board: the cells that matter, the candidates you can remove, and one clear sentence that explains why. Then it hands the board back so you can try it yourself.

LEARN REAL TECHNIQUES
• Five tiers, from singles to pairs and triples, then X-Wing, XY-Wing and Swordfish, and finally expert puzzles
• Short lessons with practice boards for each new family of techniques
• Explanations drawn on your board, never a filled-in answer
• Move up a tier once you solve steadily at your level

PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE
• 2,500 graded puzzles, each with one unique solution
• Free play at six difficulties, from Easy to Extreme
• A path of levels with up to three stars each; replay any level to earn more
• No mistake limit, no game over, and a timer you can hide
• Lighter "breather" puzzles arrive after a hard stretch
• Notes, highlights, unlimited undo and erase are always available
• Conflicts are outlined the moment two equal digits share a row, column or box

A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY
• A daily puzzle matched to your level
• Catch up on the last 7 days
• A forgiving streak: missed a day? Solve it within 48 hours to repair it

BUILT FOR ARABIC AND ENGLISH
