Color Sudoku (Paperback)

~ Philip Riley (Author), Laura Taalman (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Sudoku fans will welcome this bright new twist to the popular puzzles! Every one of these ingenious creations—from “Bold X” to “Rainbow Up”—makes colors and patterns part of the solving fun. And although each puzzle maintains the normal 9x9 grid and follows the basic rules of the game, every style adds an additional restriction to intensify the challenge. In “Worms,” for example, swirly, squirmy shapes fill the grids; the numbers increase as you work your way from head to tail. “Even/Odd” features squares in two colors, depending on whether the number to fill it is even or odd. And in “Positional Board,” no two of the red squares can be the same number. They’re all lots of fun!

Have completed many sudoku books but never had so much fun as I had with this one. The puzzles are challenging in that they force you to think in many different ways. It's not just color that is an added attribute but the different rules for each kind of puzzle make you devise new strategies. There are over 20 different kinds of puzzles in this one little book! Each puzzle is as much fun to do as the next one. You'll have a hard time putting this book down! I recommend "Color Sudoku" for all sudoku lovers.

The colors are awesome and they make the puzzles so much more interesting than regular SuDoku. Some of them are kind of hard to get used to, some of them are simple enough to do in just 5 minutes, but all of them are worth your time. And believe me, you'll get better at the hard ones. Just practice :) Enjoy! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Color Sudoku , February 13, 2008 By  Rachel Mcanallen - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    If you have become bored with regular Sudoku, then try this book. One must use a different type of thinking in order to solve the puzzles. Even some of the "easy" ones will drive you to throw your pencil against the wall. Carry an eraser with you constantly. Great puzzle book.		Ad feedback   Most Recent Customer Reviews 5.0 out of 5 stars colorful variation; fun Color Sudoku is a colorful variation on the classic Sudoku.
