Daily Sudoku for Seniors: Why a Puzzle a Day Helps

A cup of tea at the same hour, the crossword with breakfast, a walk before lunch: plenty of people have a daily routine like that. A puzzle a day fits in with it, a few quiet minutes with something to think about.

The site has two free daily puzzles, so you can keep the habit going.

One puzzle a day, the same for everyone

Every day there is one fresh Daily Sudoku and one fresh Daily Cat Sudoku. Everyone in the world gets the same puzzle that day, so if you like you can compare notes with a friend or a grandchild over the phone.

The difficulty follows the week, the way a newspaper puzzle page used to:

A new puzzle arrives every night, so there is always something waiting for you tomorrow.

Nothing to lose

These are calm puzzles. There is no timer and no score, and you cannot lose. If you get stuck there is an always-on Hint button, and unlimited Undo so nothing you do can spoil the board. Prefer to start again from scratch? A single button re-deals today’s puzzle fresh.

There is nothing to download and no account to make. You open the page and play.

Why a daily puzzle is worth the few minutes

Puzzles like Sudoku ask you to hold a few things in mind at once, notice patterns, and reason step by step. Many people find that a short daily puzzle helps them feel focused and quick, and it is a pleasant way to pass a little time.
