LinkedIn Mini Sudoku #288 Hints
Start by scanning the 6x6 grid for rows, columns, or 2x3 boxes with multiple given numbers. That quick scan reveals easy eliminations and often single-candidate cells — a fast way to reduce possibilities on today's LinkedIn Mini Sudoku puzzle.
Box-level constraints are powerful. For #288, the top-left and the middle-left boxes each have three initial givens. Use those boxes to eliminate candidates in the shared rows and columns next — these box intersections generate several forced placements.
Columns with 2–3 initial numbers (for example the central columns on this puzzle) limit the remaining digits. Cross-check those column candidates with row and box possibilities to find single candidates.
Combine box and column/row restrictions to find single-candidate cells. In this puzzle a column with three givens forces one of the row cells to be a unique value — once you place that, multiple other cells collapse to single candidates.
After a few placements, re-check interactions: a number excluded from two cells in a box often forces its location in the remaining cell in that box-row or box-column. This chain of eliminations unlocks the rest of the grid.

Use LinkedIn Mini Sudoku #288 hints: prioritize boxes with 3 givens, check column 5 early for a single candidate, and then propagate placements across boxes. These targeted eliminations open the rest of the puzzle quickly.
