How to play

The rules of sudoku, in one minute

Sudoku is a logic puzzle played on a 9×9 grid divided into nine 3×3 boxes. Some numbers are filled in to start — your job is to complete the rest using reasoning alone. No math required.

  1. 1

    Fill every row with the numbers 1 to 9 — each used exactly once.

  2. 2

    Fill every column with 1 to 9 — no number may repeat.

  3. 3

    Fill every 3×3 box with 1 to 9, again with no repeats.

  4. 4

    When the whole grid is filled with no conflicts, the puzzle is solved. Use notes to track candidates as you go.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you might want to know before you download.

Is One Sudoku free?

Yes. One Sudoku is free to download and play, with unobtrusive ads that never interrupt a puzzle. No account required.

Can I play sudoku offline, without Wi‑Fi?

Completely. Puzzles are generated on your device, so you can play anywhere — on a plane, on the subway, or with no signal at all. No internet connection is ever needed.

What game modes are there?

Three kinds of sudoku: Classic, Killer, where cages with sums replace the given numbers, and Rescue, where you take over a badly solved puzzle and fix it. Alongside them is Haunted Manor, a Halloween logic puzzle in which you hide one ghost on every floor, in every hall and in every room, with no two ghosts touching.

What difficulty levels are there?

Classic has four difficulty levels — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert — so it works for both newcomers and experienced solvers. Killer and Rescue have their own levels, and Haunted Manor comes in three sizes: Cottage, Manor, and Castle.

What is the Daily Challenge?

Every day there is one fresh puzzle that is the same for every player worldwide. Solve it each day to build and keep your streak.

Can I play One Sudoku without ads?

Yes, with Premium. To keep the app free, the free version shows a small banner at the bottom of the screen and a short full-screen ad after every third finished puzzle — never while you are playing. You can also watch an optional video for extra hints. Premium removes every ad, and it is a small way to support One Sudoku so new puzzles and updates keep coming: $0.99 a month, $9.99 a year, or $29.99 once.

Is One Sudoku available on Android?

Yes. One Sudoku is available on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, and on Google Play for Android phones and tablets.

Does One Sudoku have a dark mode?

Yes. One Sudoku follows your phone’s light or dark appearance, and you can pin either one in Settings.

Do I need an account?

No. You can play everything as a guest, and your progress is saved on your device. Signing in with Google, Apple, or an email address is optional — it syncs your progress and streaks across your devices so nothing is lost when you switch phones.
