SudoCue - HaniCue

Introduction

To get started with HaniDoku, you may want to use HaniCue, the only program that enables you to play this type of puzzle on a computer. The program can create unlimited puzzles of different difficulty levels, with various symmetry options. You can use candidate markup (a.k.a. pencilmarks) and digit filters. HaniCue can help you with hints, solve the puzzle step by step or in a single go. Various copy and paste options have been implemented, and you can also save your puzzles in a file.

The Daily HaniDoku comes with a coded string which can be pasted into the program.
