I've seen so many people playing this game, but not being a numbers person I failed to understand the concept of the game.

Finally someone at work took the time to show me how to play SUDOKU :D
now I'm hooked :rofl

Anyone who looks close at my numbers and finds a mistake,
humour me and just pretend ya didn't see it okay :rolleyes
I'm still learning :thumb

Enjoy......... Skippy

    I was always wondering about this game, but never had a chance to learn or try. I really enjoy puzzles, and i think i'll give it a try. How complicated is it??

    It's not complicated, but some of them require a lot of thought.

    They are really a logic puzzle. You just need to be able to count to 9.

    Each row, and each column and each group of nine like a tic tac toe board must contain the numbers 1 through 9 with no doubles.

    Nice shot, and yes it is addictive. No bite marks on the pencil though?

    Love it, Skippy, nice shot... I've been through my addiction and finally kicked the habit (it was tough). I'll occassionally backslide, though. :D

    It's actually not as hard as it looks, well not at the novice level, but still requires you to think about where your going to put your numbers :D

    Nope no bite marks on the pencil, when you work in a Path Lab like I do, you quickly learn never to put anything in your mouth.

    I quite enjoy these puzzles and I will be taking a book with me on the plane headed for the Dgrin Shoot Out later this year :D

    Thanks for looking .... Skippy

    Hi there Chris, I've watched people play this game from the other side of the tea room for a long time, but didn't want to sound dumb saying I didn't understand the concept of the game rolleyes1.gif

    I notice more and more people are playing it on their breaks at work rolleyes1.gif
    Yep its adictive ..... thanks for looking Chris .... Skippy

    I agree with the addictiveness of Sudoku, when I was buying my last book of puzzles I found Kakuro, have you tried this one yet, similar to sudoku by using one the numbers 1-9 but you have to add them together to solve the clues/values that the puzzle gives you (headscratch.gif starting to confuse my self, but it is fun once you get going)

    Hi there Wifey, I haven't see this game before, I'm sure it would frustrate me no end hehehe.
    What I like about the puzzels is they make you think.

    Thanks for sharing your puzzel :D .... Skippy
