Tips and strategy for Cage Sudoku

- Cage digits still obey Sudoku rows, columns and boxes, so cross off what the grid already holds.
- Subtract a finished cage from the row, column and box it crosses to narrow other cells.
Questions about Cage Sudoku
What do the cages add to Cage Sudoku?
Each cage has a total: its digits must add up to that number, and no digit can repeat inside the cage.
Does Cage Sudoku offer difficulty settings?
Yes. Easy, medium and hard differ in how many digits start filled in, and hard gives none at all.
