You can go to Mystery Sudoku Techniques to find a step by step solution and explaination of a mystery sudoku.

The Mystery Sudoku is my latest creation. Just like a sum frame sudoku, there are SUM NUMBERS in the border.

One of the 9 digits (eg 2) is the Mystery Digit. What do we know about this digit?

  • The cell in the middle of the grid is ALWAYS one of the nine places of the Mystery Digit, but its value is still unknown. The cell is yellow to designate it as a location of a Mystery Digit.
  • Try to find the value of the Mystery Digit, the location of the other 8 Mystery Digits and of course solve the complete sudoku puzzle.
  • The SUM numbers in the border will help you with this. The upper sum numbers are the sum of the numbers that are connected vertically and both diagonally to the upper side of the Mystery Digit. Follow the same analogy for the sum numbers below, left and right.
  • If there is "0" as sum number, then you can designate the cell next to it as a place for the Mystery Digit. So at the start you always know 5 locations of the Mystery Digit.
