Easy Tripod Sudoku Puzzles
Tripod Sudoku is a Sudoku variant where the grid is divided into undefined regions called tripods. Each digit from 1 to size of the grid must appear exactly once in each row, column, and region. The intersections of three lines, where the regions meet, are provided, and there are no points where four lines intersect.

Tripod Sudoku is a puzzle that combines the logic of Sudoku with an extra twist. Here's a breakdown of how it works:
Grid and Numbers:
- Like regular Sudoku, the grid can be various sizes, but common ones are 5x5, 7x7, or 9x9.
- You need to fill each cell with a number, from 1 up to the grid size (e.g., 1 to 5 for a 5x5 grid).
Basic Sudoku Rules Apply:
- Just like regular Sudoku, every row and column must contain all the digits without any repeats.
The Tripod Twist: Regions and Intersections
- This is where it gets interesting. The grid is divided into unknown regions, but unlike regular Sudoku, these regions are not marked for you.
- You have clues to figure out the regions: black dots placed at some intersections where grid lines meet. These dots indicate exactly three lines coming together, forming a "tripod" shape. There are no four-way intersections.
- The key rule for the regions is that digits cannot repeat within any region.
Solving the Puzzle:
- Your goal is to fill the grid with numbers and simultaneously figure out the region borders based on the clues (dots) and the no-repeat rule within each region.
- By strategically placing numbers and analyzing the possible regions based on the tripods, you can gradually solve the puzzle.
Tripod Sudoku offers a fun twist on the classic logic puzzle, adding an extra layer of deduction to figure out the hidden region borders.
