Like sudoku? Then you'll love samurai sudoku! This brand new collection in a sturdy and large-sized edition containing 100 fantastic samurai sudoku puzzles, spread across two sudoku variants, with plenty of space to add notes:
(a) 50x Five-grid Samurai Sudoku
(b) 50x Samurai Star Sudoku
Standard samurai sudoku contain five overlapping sudoku grids. You'll need to solve them simultaneously in order to complete the puzzles successfully. With samurai star sudoku, there are also five overlapping grids, but the overlap is a lot tighter than with normal samurai sudoku puzzles: in fact the central puzzle is composed fully from regions that make up the other four grids.
There are 50 of each puzzle type in the book, which comes on high-quality paper with full solutions also included at the back of the book. There is one puzzle per page, which means that the grids are displayed at a good size for solving and pencilmarks, so that there is sufficient space for you to record your progress as you go along. Each puzzle has a single solution that can be reached through logic alone, so you'll never need to guess the answer: as with standard sudoku just place the numbers from 1 - 9 once in each row, column and 3x3 box in each grid, being careful to remember which regions belong to each of the five grids in each puzzle.
However, you'll need to pay close attention to the overlapping regions to help you solve these samurai sudoku puzzles, and in particular with the tightly overlapping grids in the samurai star puzzles with its interesting solving logic. If you're a fan of regular sudoku, but either solve the puzzles too quickly or are simply after a new challenge, then we're sure you'll love our multi-grid samurai sudoku puzzles. Every puzzle has a single solution that can be reached through the application of standard sudoku-solving logical rules, but they may be trickier to spot and apply with samurai sudoku so you'll need more patience than with standard puzzles.
