What is Medium Killer Sudoku?

Medium Killer Sudoku is a step up in cage-sum reasoning, built for solvers who understand the basics and want more layered arithmetic deductions.

You solve a 9×9 grid with classic Sudoku rules, plus dashed cages where digits must match the given sum and cannot repeat within the cage.

Compared to easy puzzles, medium layouts use smaller cages and tighter overlaps, requiring better candidate tracking and more deliberate combination filtering.

  • ✓Cage Combination Limits — Remove combos that conflict
  • ✓Multiple-Cage Sums — Add totals across grouped cages
  • ✓Hidden Singles via Sums — A sum forces one digit
  • ✓Candidate Reduction — Remove options that break sums
