In the ever-growing trend of workplace micro-break entertainment, LinkedIn’s Mini Sudoku has carved out a loyal following. Each morning, professionals from around the globe swap spreadsheets for number grids, racing to complete the day’s puzzle before their first coffee cools.
Unlike the classic 9×9 Sudoku, LinkedIn’s version keeps things short and snappy — either 4×4 or 6×6. The quick-hit format is perfect for filling the gap between emails, loading screens, or pre-meeting lulls.
Today’s challenge was a clever mix of easy entries and hidden traps, with a symmetry twist that caught even seasoned players off guard. But fear not — our newsroom cracked it.
Today’s Hint
If you’re stuck, focus on the top-left and bottom-right boxes. Each is missing the same number, and in both cases, it can only go in one spot. That placement sparks a domino effect that unravels the rest of the grid. Forget scanning rows — match boxes diagonally, and the solution will reveal itself.
Today’s Solution #26
(6×6 format)
4 3 1 5 2 6
6 5 2 3 4 1
5 2 6 1 3 4
3 1 4 6 5 2
2 6 5 4 1 3
1 4 3 2 6 5
✔️ Each row, column, and 2×3 box contains 1–6 exactly once.
The breakthrough came from spotting the missing diagonal pair. From there, it was a matter of pure logic — no guessing required. That’s the beauty of Mini Sudoku: every number has a reason, and every correct placement feels earned.
