Download Sudoku for Printing
You can download several PDF files with each 100 Sudoku and print them.
All of these Sudokus have one unique solution.
Minimal, Difficult Sudokus
These Sudokus have only 17 clues. It is commonly believed that 17 clues is the minimum for a Sudokus that still has a uniq solution.
100 difficult Sudoku NR. 1 (PDF).
100 difficult Sudoku NR. 2 (PDF). These are extremely difficult. I have more then 30,000 Sudoku and took the 100 most difficult, so give it a try ;-)
100 difficult Sudoku NR. 3 (PDF). They are number 101 to 200 from a list of demanding Sudokus, continuing NR. 2. Solutions are included.
New: By demand from some visitors you can now download one thousand minimal Sudokus (pdf).
These difficult Sudokus are based on a collection by Gordon Royle, University of Western Australia. It is licensed under Creative Commons Attributions License.
You should note that my program's notion of "difficult" differs very much from the way humans experience diffculty when solving Sudokus, so should not take the "most difficult" statement too seriously. There is work in progress to improve this situation.
Irreducible, Hard Sudokus
These Sudokus are irreducible, that means that if you delete a single clue, they become ambigous.
