How CANDOKU works

Classic Sudoku logic, redesigned as a playful daily puzzle break.

Pick a puzzle

Start with a quick daily challenge or choose your own level.

Read the board

Look across rows, columns, and blocks to spot missing numbers.

👀 Brain Check: Early-Stage Solving

Active visual scanning recruits the Intraparietal Sulcus (IPS), building visuospatial working memory as you track numbers across the grid.

Use logic, not luck

Place each number by deduction, pattern recognition, and elimination.

Get help when stuck

Use hints to keep learning without breaking the flow.

🧠 Brain Check: Late-Stage Logic

As cognitive load shifts, you practice multi-step heuristic reasoning in the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC), sequencing actions and enforcing rules.

Complete your daily win

Finish the puzzle, build your streak, and come back tomorrow.

⚡ Brain Check: Metacognitive Reward

Evaluating numbers engages error-detection centers, while the ventral striatum provides the dopamine drive that makes solving so satisfying.
