I love sudoku, so I just couldn’t resist checking out LinkedIn’s new Mini Sudoku game that it launched this week.
The rules in Mini Sudoku are quite similar to regular sudoku: you need to fill in all of the blank spots of a puzzle with a number, but a number can’t repeat in a line, row, or box.
But the twist with Mini Sudoku is that it uses six numbers instead of nine, meaning the game has smaller puzzles that are a little easier to take in across a mobile phone screen.

The most annoying thing about Mini Sudoku is that it’s on LinkedIn, so it means I’ve found myself accidentally scrolling my LinkedIn feed.
