The Daily Mail's daily sudoku comes in seven levels, from Level 1 to Level 7, all dated with the day. Fill the 9x9 grid so every row, column and 3x3 box holds the digits 1 to 9 once.

About Sudoku (Daily Mail)

Sudoku is one of about thirty puzzles on the Daily Mail games page, free in the browser with ads. Each one opens on a start screen that carries the day's date, and every reader gets the same puzzle that day.

The rules are classic sudoku: some digits are given, and you fill the rest so that every row, every column and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1 to 9 exactly once. The start screen asks you to pick one of seven difficulty levels, so a beginner and a seasoned solver can both find a grid that suits them on the same day.

The puzzle opens behind the Daily Mail's consent screen, where you either accept personalised ads or buy an ad-free subscription. It suits readers who like a sudoku with their news and want a fresh one every day.
