A daily puzzle where you build the board yourself

Pazuju plays like Sudoku, with one twist: the grid isn’t given to you whole. You rotate and drag oddly-shaped pieces into place first, then fill in the numbers. Three new puzzles every day, in three sizes.

How to play

1. Assemble the board

Some pieces already sit on the board. Drag the rest from the tray and rotate them until every piece fits without overlapping, filling the grid completely.

2. Fill in the numbers

Once a square is covered, click it to cycle through the possible numbers. Some numbers are given from the start and can’t be changed.

3. One of each, everywhere

Just like Sudoku, every number can appear only once in each row, each column, and inside each individual piece — regardless of the piece’s shape or size.

Three sizes, every day

Each day brings three fresh puzzles built on the same rules but different board sizes — Grasshopper, Snake, and Dragon. Difficulty (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, or Expert) is set by how many solving rules a puzzle takes, not by its size, and is mixed up across the three each day, so you never know which one will be the toughest.
