*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
A rare treat tonight in the form of Jay Dyer's new killer sudoku (yes, no extra rules!) called Square Dance. This is probably harder the most killer sudokus you've ever seen BUT it may not be. Live-solving is a hazardous business and Simon is fearful he's missed at least one or two elegancies that may exist in Jay's puzzle! (And he's certain that no-one will solve it the way he did!!)

Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits in a cage may not repeat, and sum to the indicated total.

Thanks to all of you who have helped us achieve the milestone of 600,000 subscribers on YouTube. Below you can find a link to a free puzzle pack we have curated to celebrate :)

*** NEW SUDOKU HUNT BY PAWS RELEASED 1 JULY ***
We've just launched a brand new competition - a sudoku hunt by Paws featuring lots of smaller-sized sudokus. It's intended to be a bit easier than usual as July is a holiday month for many of us so do have a go, especially if you're new to variant sudoku!

We've also got a new series of linked sudokus from rockratzero just out!
