Play Medium Futoshiki Online

Medium Futoshiki gives you a balanced logic challenge: not too easy, not too punishing. Fill the grid with unique numbers in every row and column, then use > and < clues to narrow candidates and solve the puzzle step by step.

How to Play Medium Futoshiki

Medium puzzles use the same basic rules as every Futoshiki puzzle, but they usually have fewer obvious placements than Easy puzzles. You will need to combine row logic, column logic, and inequality clues more carefully.

Each row must contain every number once
Each column must contain every number once
Every inequality sign must be true
Use notes or candidates when a cell has several possible values
Look for clues that affect more than one row or column

What Makes Medium Futoshiki Different?

Medium Futoshiki is where the game starts to feel more strategic. You will still find direct moves, but they may not appear immediately. Instead of filling cells one by one from obvious clues, you will often need to compare several possible numbers before choosing the only valid option.

This level is perfect if Easy puzzles feel too fast, but you still want a smooth and enjoyable solve without the intensity of Hard or Expert.

Medium Futoshiki Solving Strategies

Strategy 1: Write Down Candidates

When a cell has more than one possible value, mentally list its candidates. Then remove any number that already appears in the same row or column, or that breaks a nearby inequality sign.

Strategy 2: Watch for Forced Extremes

The smallest and largest numbers are often restricted by inequality clues. A cell that must be greater than another cannot be the lowest number. A cell that must be smaller than another cannot be the highest number.

Strategy 3: Cross-Check Every Placement

Before placing a number, check both directions: the row and the column. A value that looks correct in one row may be impossible because of the column or a connected inequality clue.
