Three Gray Houses Already Sit on the 6×6. That Book Is a Sixy.
A shopper opens Look Inside on another small-grid Sudoku and gets a bare 6×6. Digits. Empty cells. The same page they have already bought.
Then they open yours. Three gray houses are already painted on the board: one on the left, one on the right, one across the middle. Each of those houses has to hold 1 through 6 once. Rows, columns, and regular boxes still do their job. That page is Sixy Sudoku. They can name it before they read a given.
The other listing on this product wears four arrows on a 9×9, one from each side. Same extra-house rule. Different spine. That book is Arrow Sudoku.
More Hyper Sudoku prints those pages on one grid, with the extra houses already gray, and writes the matching key in the same Create.
Try the free demo and print a Sixy first. Demo files carry a watermark. Paid files do not.
Why Sixy and Arrow Earn a Place in Your Catalog
Sudoku listings compete on cover art because the interior is a wall of the same 9×9. A shopper who already owns three of those will skip the fourth unless Look Inside already shows extra gray blocks they can name.
Sixy is that 6×6. The extra houses are blocks they can see at thumbnail size, not a caption you hope they read. Arrow is that 9×9: four 9-cell arrows cut across the familiar grid, and the listing stops looking like the fifty around it.
I wanted both of those interiors in books I was already making, on a single grid, with a key that came out of the same Create. When the catalog needs a named Sixy title or a named Arrow title, this is the module I open.
Around those two spines sit 4×4 Hyper (one extra 2×2) and 8×8 Hyper (two extra 2×4 houses). Four types. One extra-house rule. One product.
What You Can Create
Lock one size, one type, and one level, then Create. These are the books this product prints:
- A standalone Sixy book: 6×6 pages with three gray 3×2 houses already on the grid, keys in the back
- A standalone Arrow book: 9×9 pages with four arrows, one from each side
- A 4×4 Hyper title for a short extra-house book or a class pack
- An 8×8 Hyper title when you want the larger block look
- A letters, Roman, hex, or images reprint of the same houses, so the second listing is a new skin, not a new rule
- Class sets and Teachers Pay Teachers packs: 4×4 Hyper Very Easy, Easy, and Hard as three sheets, with 6×6 Sixy as the work page
- Instant Puzzle Books interiors at the trim you already keep, or the same collection opened in Puzzle Book Studio
Create writes two images every time: the unsolved page with the extra houses already gray, and the filled key.
See the Output
The sample is a Sixy page or an Arrow page. The other two Hyper sizes fill the catalog around those spines.
Numbers keep the houses readable on the first book. Letters, Roman numerals, hex, or images reprint the same houses when the next title needs a second look.
Why Create It with Puzzle Maker Pro?
The stall was sitting down later to fill the key after the book was already designed.
Each Create writes a puzzle image and a matching solution image. You lock one size, one type, and one level. Quantity runs from 1 to 5000. Put the keys in the solutions section in the back of the book, or keep the teacher copy with the class pack.
The generator draws from a curated bank and then mirrors, rotates, or shuffles the page. A long Quantity run can reuse a transformed board. Set Quantity for the chapter you are stacking.
Key Creation Workflows
List a Sixy title Sixy is the 6×6 Hyper on this page: three extra 3×2 gray houses already sitting on the grid. That is the Look Inside a shopper can say out loud. Lock 6×6, lock Hyper Sudoku, lock the level that title is actually for, and Create. The first book stays numbers so the houses stay readable. Tint the gray to the color already on that small-grid series so the sample matches the spine.
Print a whole Arrow book Arrow is the 9×9 on this page: four 9-cell arrows, one from each side. On size 9, pick Arrows Sudoku. That Create is an Arrow interior, not a Sixy chapter with a different cover. 9×9 Arrow can run through Extreme. Put Extreme at the back of the book, or as the take-home page, and keep the matching key for the answer section.
Fill the catalog with 4×4 Hyper and 8×8 Hyper 4×4 Hyper adds one extra 2×2. Its levels are Very Easy, Easy, and Hard, so a short extra-house book or a three-sheet class pack comes off the same type. 8×8 Hyper adds two extra 2×4 houses and can run through Extreme. Lock one size and one type per Create. The next title is the other size, same book settings.
Reprint the same houses as a second title Numbers are the first listing. Letters, Roman numerals, hexadecimal, or images keep the same extra-house rule and give you a second cover from the houses they already recognized. A 4×4 animals page is still 4×4 Hyper. A Sixy in letters is still Sixy. Save the look and the next extra-house book opens on it.
Set Quantity and take the puzzle-plus-key pair Quantity is 1 to 5000 Sixy or Arrow pages from one size, one type, and one level. Each page ships with its filled key, as JPG, PNG, transparent PNG, or SVG. A Sixy Easy chapter is one run. An Arrow Extreme chapter is another. Instant Puzzle Books stacks that pair.
Hand the set to Instant Puzzle Books or Puzzle Book Studio You already keep trim, titles, and page numbers in Instant Puzzle Books. It stacks the unsolved Sixy or Arrow pages, then the keys, with a title page, a table of contents, and a footer that names the solution page. Export as an interactive PDF book and the unsolved page opens its filled key. When this collection needs fonts and titles edited on the page, open it in Puzzle Book Studio. This product edits one collection: front matter, puzzle pages, the answer key section, page numbers, trim size. The interactive PDF book comes from Studio the same way it comes from Instant Puzzle Books.
From One Puzzle to a Full Book
A Sixy thumbnail is a listing image. A Sixy book needs a locked 6×6, a locked level, a Quantity run, and a solutions section that matches.
Set size, type, and level. Set Quantity. Create. Instant Puzzle Books turns that run into the interior at the trim you already use: title page, contents, unsolved pages, then keys, with a footer that names the solution page. Export as an interactive PDF book from Instant Puzzle Books or Puzzle Book Studio and the unsolved Sixy or Arrow page opens its filled key.
Puzzle Book Studio edits this one collection when you want to change front matter, puzzle pages, the answer key section, page numbers, or trim on the page. Next title: lock Arrow instead of Sixy, or lock 4×4 Hyper, and keep the same book settings.
Output Formats and Publishing Options
The extra-house page has to print as a book interior or a class sheet without a redraw. More Hyper Sudoku writes JPG, PNG, transparent PNG, and SVG for the unsolved page and the filled key.

Teachers and Teachers Pay Teachers sellers. 4×4 Hyper is Very Easy, Easy, and Hard: warm-up, middle of the room, and challenge sheet from one type. 6×6 Sixy is the work page on the same extra-house rule. 8×8 Hyper and 9×9 Arrow can run through Extreme for the take-home or club page.
