Pharaoh Sudoku

Difficulty

Nine by nine Sudoku grid. Press Tab to focus the grid, then use the arrow keys to move between cells, Home and End to jump to the start or end of a row, Page Up and Page Down to jump to the top or bottom of a column, the number keys 1 through 9 to fill the selected cell, and Backspace to clear it. Cells marked as given cannot be changed.

Loading a new puzzle.
Digit first entry. Choose a digit to arm it, then tap or select cells to place it. Choose the same digit again to put it down. Use the arrow keys to move between digits and Enter or Space to activate the focused digit. The small number below each digit is how many of that digit remain to be placed. Notes mode is off, so digits are entered as answers.

Tap a digit, then tap cells to place it. Keyboard: arrows to move · 1–9 to fill · Backspace to erase · N notes · H hint · U undo · Space pause

Settings

Off by default. When on, a digit that is wrong for this puzzle is marked the moment you place it — your entry is never erased for you. Duplicate digits in a row, column or 3×3 box are always flagged, whatever this setting says. Your choice is remembered for future games.

Number Size

Default grid digits — best for larger screens. Pencil notes stay small. Your choice is saved for the next game.

Saved

A short vibration when you place a number, reveal a hint, or undo a move — plus a distinct buzz for a wrong entry and a celebratory pulse when you finish. Optional, and remembered for future games.

Pick any name you like — please don't use your real name. 2–16 letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens or underscores.

Sharing is optional and public. Off by default. When on, each game you finish is added to the public community leaderboard showing only your nickname, an anonymous player ID created on this device, and the game result — difficulty, time, score, mistakes, hints and date. No email, account, contacts or device information is ever sent. Other players can report or block you, and published entries can be moderated, hidden or removed if a nickname breaks the Community Guidelines. Turn this off any time and no further results are published; email PharaohsPrideUSA2026@gmail.com to have an entry removed.
