Puzzle ID 607 · 6×6 grid

These are the answers to the Puzzle Page Sudoku for January 2, 2019, puzzle ID 607. The board below is the completed 6×6 grid exactly as it looks in the app once every square is filled .

Sudoku is one of 20 puzzle types published in Puzzle Page, and this date carried 8 puzzles in total — you can see all of them on the January 2, 2019 page. To work through this game date by date, use the full Sudoku archive, or step back to January 1, 2019.

Because Sudoku is solved with digits rather than letters, the board above is the finished arrangement — every cell filled exactly as the app accepts it. Compare a single row or block against your own grid rather than copying the whole thing, and the rest usually falls into place from the constraints you already have.

Puzzle Page numbers each game separately, so the ID on this page belongs to Sudoku alone — a Sudoku published the same day carries a different one. If the grid here stops matching your screen the app has been updated; say so in the comments and it gets re-checked. Every grid on this site is captured from the finished puzzle rather than copied from another answers site.

Tips for Puzzle Page Sudoku

  1. 1

    Scan for the digit that already appears most often — it is the easiest to place next.

  2. 2

    Work boxes, rows and columns in rotation rather than staring at one region.

  3. 3

    When a row has one empty cell, fill it immediately; those cascade.

  4. 4

    Pencil in candidates only when scanning stops producing placements — otherwise it slows you down.

  5. 5

    A digit that can only go in one cell of a box goes there, even if that cell has other candidates.

  6. 6

    Scan by number, not by square. Take each digit one to nine in turn and place every certain instance of it across the whole board before moving on.

  7. 7

    When scanning stops producing placements, switch to counting candidates in a single box. A digit that can only go in one cell of that box is placed regardless of its row or column.
