About this Game

Animal Sudoku is a small sudoku for children. The 4 by 4 puzzles use four animals and 2 by 2 colored blocks. After the 12 small puzzles come 6 by 6 puzzles with six animals and 2 by 3 blocks. There is no timer. If two equal animals meet, they just wiggle.

Common Questions

Do children need to read numbers?

No. The rule is about animals: each animal once in every row, column and colored block. A colored ring around each animal also helps tell them apart.

Can a puzzle be solved by guessing?

The puzzles are made by the game and can be solved by thinking. You can always ask for a hint, which fills one square, and you earn fewer stars when you use many hints.
