How to Play Essential Sudoku DS
Quick start
Choose a number or picture puzzle and read its instructions. Fill one certain entry, compare the crossing constraints and only then continue across the grid.
Controls
Write numbers or paint cells with the stylus, using the displayed colour and erase controls. Select the intended cell carefully and check recognised digits before treating them as part of the solution.
Essential Sudoku DS — About this game
Switch between number puzzles and picture-logic grids in a collection with separate challenges for both. Sudoku asks you to fill the grid without repeating a digit in its row, column or marked box; picture puzzles use edge clues to reveal coloured squares. Check the current mode before entering a mark. Start with an easier grid and correct a mistaken entry before building further deductions on top of it.
