How to Solve Killer Sudoku on Sudokus.io

Killer Sudoku is a twist on classic Sudoku that adds an extra challenge—and a lot more fun. If you're new to it or looking to get better, here's a simple guide to help you crack those cages and solve puzzles faster on sudokus.io/killer.

What Is Killer Sudoku?

It’s Sudoku, but with cages—dashed-line areas that have a sum total. No repeated numbers allowed in a row, column, 3x3 box, or within a cage. The extra constraint makes for deeper logic and bigger wins.

Try a puzzle now at sudokus.io/killer.

Step-by-Step Strategy

1. Start with the obvious sums

Look for cages that have:

• A sum of 3 in 2 cells → only possible as 1+2
• A sum of 17 in 2 cells → must be 8+9

These narrow options help you place numbers or eliminate others.

2. Use combinations

Some totals only allow a few number sets. For example:

• A 4-cell cage with a sum of 10 must be 1+2+3+4 (no repeats)

Check out this Killer Sudoku combo reference to speed up your solving.

3. Apply Sudoku rules

Even with cages, the basic rules apply:

• Numbers 1–9 only once per row, column, and box. Use this to eliminate numbers that would conflict in the grid.

4. Look for intersections

Some cells sit in both a cage and a box or row. Use this to cross-reference and lock in more digits.

5. Use pencil marks

On sudokus.io/killer, right-click or tap to toggle pencil mode. Mark possible digits to keep track of options without guessing.

6. Work from known to unknown

Once you’ve got a few numbers filled in, other cages become easier to solve. Use the completed sums to deduce the rest.

Bonus Tips

• Use keyboard shortcuts: Arrow keys to move, number keys to fill in.
• Tap the “Check” button to spot mistakes early.
• Stuck? Use the “Hint” button—no shame in a little help.

Final Word

Killer Sudoku is all about logic and patience. The more you play, the better you’ll get. So fire up a puzzle at sudokus.io/killer, start small, and keep building.

Happy solving!
