Introducing Kenkuro puzzles

In my previous newsletter I sent out a puzzle that is very special because it’s a completely new kind of puzzle. It wouldn’t be fair if I didn’t share it with all of you. So, if you want to see what the puzzle is and if you like either Kakuro or Calcudoku or Killer Sudoku, […]

UPDATE: One clarification about the rules of Outside Jigsaw Sudokus: The clues tell you which numbers appear in the 3 closest cells in that row/column. They are […]

Introducing “Sudoku Sequences” or “Sudoku Straights”

Here is a brand new Sudoku variation as a special Christmas present. Hope you will like it. The rules: 1. Use numbers 1-9. Numbers cannot be repeated in rows/columns. 2. There are no nonets (3×3 boxes) like in other Sudoku puzzles. 3. Black cells do not contain numbers. Therefore, not all numbers 1-9 will appear […]
