Jigsaw Sudoku

Postby groston » Wed Dec 14, 2022 5:10 am

I regularly play Enjoy Sudoku, at the Difficult level, and get every one. I am now learning more to move up to the Annoying level.

I recently found a website with Jigsaw Sudokus and tried one, just for fun. I got part way, but am now stuck, see http://pairofdocs.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/JigsawSudoku.jpg. If you would please suggest a next move, and more importantly, the strategy you used to determine that, I would appreciate your help.

Thank you, but... Please define, or show me where to learn, what "candidate 2 in jigsaw piece 2" means

Never mind - figured it out. Bad oversight on my part
