How to Approach Extreme Sudoku

Here's what it takes to solve extreme sudoku puzzles:

You Need Every Technique Extreme puzzles don't play favorites. You'll need chains, forcing chains, ALS, coloring, X-wing, swordfish, and every other advanced technique working together in perfect harmony. There's no shortcut—you need to master them all.

Accept the Challenge With only one clue to start, you're going to spend a lot of time exploring possibilities and testing hypotheses. Don't get frustrated. This is meant to be the ultimate challenge. Embrace the difficulty and enjoy the process of working through it.

Keep Detailed Notes Use notes extensively. Track every logical deduction, every possibility you've eliminated, every chain you've built. With so few clues, every piece of information is precious. Systematic note-taking isn't optional—it's essential for solving extreme puzzles.
