How to start playing the Easy Sudoku puzzles?



For beginners, here are steps which can be helpful in solving the easy sudoku. Be sure to follow each step carefully and correctly to have a better chance of solving the puzzle.

1. Upon Solving, guess cautiously and smartly. Since you already know that you cannot have two same numerals in each row, column or 3 x 3 boxes, you can use this as your first tip or hint which will help you to get another numeral in the series. Remember the more difficult the Sudoku is, the lesser chance to start the game easily.

2. In solving an easy Sudoku, the first thing you must keep in mind is to look for the possibilities. Possibilities are the numerals that are possibly just around. Beginning at 1, make an imaginary line on the boxes in the 1’s row and column. When you see that only one box is left in the nine-square block, you will know that it is a possibility.

3. Carefully work on the numerals until the numeral 9. Since you already placed some of the numerals, this must help you to get other numerals which has more possibilities.

4. If you are trapped, go back but ensure to look at the other numerals. Once that happens, it is assured that you had missed something on the puzzle. That thing is normally where you need to be active again. If on the process you still cannot find the “missing numeral”, begin by labeling each block with everything which has a chance to be on the box.

5. It would be advisable that you begin a game in the newspaper. Most of the newspapers in the country already have Sudoku puzzle games. Most of the easy puzzle games are out during Monday and Tuesday. While the difficult puzzles are out on the following days.

The basic technique most players use in playing the Easy Sudoku is by going through every numeral and by trying to place as many numerals as the puzzle permits. You have to observe the numerals on the rows and columns to make sure that there are no same numerals present.

If you are working your way on the numerals 1 to 9, ensure to think of going through the same procedure again. Then, look at the squares to know the numerals you can use to keep other numerals from filling in.

Try to train your mind well in looking at the numerals in all 3 x 3 boxes, columns or rows. In this way, you can easily spot the missing numerals which you need in each 3 x 3 boxes, columns or rows.

Lastly, if it is your first time to play the game, be patient. It may be an easy Sudoku but it is not as simple as what you may think. It still requires great logical skills and careful thinking in order to win and complete the puzzle.
