Sudoku Blocks

Sudoku Blocks borrows the board from sudoku and the pieces from a block puzzle. There are no digits to fill in. Instead, you place wood blocks on a 9×9 square grid, and the one rule that matters is not to run out of space — the game asks you to keep placing blocks for as long as the board allows.

The sudoku side shows in the grid itself. A 9×9 board divides naturally into rows, columns and 3×3 squares, and good play means thinking about where the next awkward shape could still go before you commit the current one. A board filled carelessly leaves no room for the piece that follows.

It is presented as a test of your brain and IQ, which fits the way the game rewards looking ahead. What you are getting is a relaxed spatial puzzle on a familiar sudoku grid. What you are not getting is number logic: if you want classic sudoku deductions, the sudoku section of this site is the place for them.

Controls

Drag a block with the mouse or a finger and drop it on the grid.

How to Play

  1. Look at the blocks you are offered.
  2. Drag each one onto an empty part of the 9x9 grid.
  3. Think about where the next block could fit before placing this one.
  4. Keep going until you run out of space.

Tips & Tricks

Leave room for the large, awkward blocks. Small pieces fit almost anywhere, so an open area of the grid is worth protecting for the shapes that do not.
