stoopidbat Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I'm absolutely addicted to sudoku!!! This past spring I found a news article describing what a hit it had become in England- included was a sample puzzle. I WAS HOOKED IMMEDIATELY. At that time, the only place to find more puzzles was on the web. Luckily, however, the craze has caught on over here as well, and my local newspaper now publishes a daily puzzle. Quite a few sudoku books out now as well! Now I have to go try the puzzle physics linked to.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a puzzle in all the leading daily papers, special sudoku inserts in the weekend edition, books galore - and now it's gotten to me. QUOTE (Rolinda_Bonz)wow, that took me 65 min!!!

That one took me a long time to solve too, and I needed a nap in between! I think breaks are good for the mind, though. Each day, the puzzle difficulty rises. Whatever number of stars yesterday's sudoku was, today's'll be a star higher. (Until the fifth star, whereupon the cycle begins anew.) I've yet to solve a 5-star one. What's most frustrating is when I'm close to the end, and I see I've made a mistake. Trying to retrace one's steps at that point can be exasperating.
