What is inside the booklet

The puzzles are printed exactly as they were published, with no reshuffling, so you can compare your grid with the originals discussed on the hardest sudoku puzzles page. They print 4 to a page with room for a full set of pencil marks, which you will need: at this level most solvers keep every candidate written in and test chains on a separate sheet. The final pages hold the completed grids, so you can check a long line of reasoning without having to finish it first.

How hard these puzzles are

Very. Every puzzle in the Infinity set has a published SE rating of at least 10.4, well past anything the generated tiers or the Hell corpus produce. Our own rater stops pricing the SE ladder at 8.5, so the figures quoted here come from independent raters, and our technique engine cannot finish any of these grids on its own. Expect to need long forcing chains and forcing nets, and expect a single puzzle to take far longer than anything else on this site.

Where to go next

Want to warm up first? The printable Hell sudoku booklet holds forcing-chain puzzles that are hard but still within reach of our technique ladder. Prefer a screen?

Printable Infinity Sudoku FAQ

Is the printable Infinity sudoku PDF free?

Yes, with no account and no watermark, and every puzzle’s solved grid is included at the back.

Is AI Escargot in the printable booklet?

Yes, along with Everest, Platinum Blonde and Golden Nugget. The booklet prints the puzzles as they were originally published.

Who rated these puzzles?

The SE ratings are the values independent raters and the sudoku-solving community publish. Suuudokuuu’s own rater reports 8.5 with a ceiling flag for anything harder than that, so it does not produce its own figure for these puzzles.

How many puzzles are in the printable Infinity sudoku PDF?

16 puzzles across 9 pages, four to a page, with the solved grids at the back.
