The Trick To Winning At Sudoku
Sudoku is one of the hottest trends in games and entertainment.
The interest in this Japanese number crossword puzzle is
absolutely at a fever pitch. The rules are simple - fill in the
squares so that all numbers are represented only once per row.
Simple rules, difficult to follow. What makes Sudoku almost
addicting is the consistent challenge of finding the right
match. The trial and error matched with a pre-planned strategy
based on the clues you're provided make success possible for
everyone. And of course it helps that there are different game
levels available. So you can start with, or always go back to,
the easiest level in order to gain an understanding of how the
game works and what strategies work best for you. And unlike
crossword puzzles, which are popular in their own right, Sudoku
does not require an infinite knowledge of words or a long-term
commitment to figure a puzzle out. And the frustration level
stays low because one can always go back to the most basic level
and focus on speed rather than mere completion. In a 5-30 minute
time period, one can play a game or a few, be challenged
intellectually, get the satisfaction out of completing a puzzle,
and walk away refreshed to go use their brain in another matter.
And with the online resources and local clubs and competitions,
the Sudoku experience is only becoming more popular. School
children use it in their classroom to practice addition, number
patterns, and logical thinking - while many in assisted living
programs have incorporated Sudoku into their regular bingo
rotation.
The best thing about Sudoku is it provides an equal playing
ground for everyone. Four year old kids, elderly adults, PhDs in
math, and those who don't speak English can all play the same
game, with varied difficulty levels, and get the same level of
satisfaction from it.
