Understand the basics of Sandwich Sudoku

Practice beyond the first move

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Keep the objective visible.

The challenge in front of you

Solve the Sudoku while each outside clue gives the sum strictly between 1 and 9 in that row or column. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Work through the instructions

  1. Select an editable cell.
  2. Enter a value using the keypad or keyboard; Notes stores candidates.
  3. Read the region, cage, arrow or outside clues alongside the normal constraints.
  4. Check entries verifies the completed board; Undo reverses your last input.
  5. New puzzle selects another included puzzle.

Making selections and moves

Click or tap cells and the digit pad. Use Notes, Undo and Reveal selected. Large boards scroll inside the game. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

Put the rules into context

If the values strictly between 1 and 9 are 2, 4 and 7, the sandwich clue is 13. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Pay attention to this rule

A full board must obey every extra rule. Reveal supplies assistance; it is not an earned deduction. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
