Book Description

November 1, 2007 Trivial Pursuit
The super-successful board game meets the hottest puzzles around, and the result is a fun new challenge for solvers. This smart hybrid of trivia and sudoku comes to us, courtesy of Frank Longo, who's simply one of the world's best selling - and best - puzzle authors in the business. Regular 9 X 9 grids adorn each page, but like wordoku, the puzzles use letters instead of numbers. The twist is above the grid: an official Trivial Pursuit question whose answer is revealed only when the puzzle is solved. It's a challenge no sudoku fan could resist!Trivial Pursuit is a trademark of Hasbro and is used with permission.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice mix of Trivia and Logic, November 1, 2007
By 
This review is from: TRIVIAL PURSUIT Sudoku (Paperback)
In this variation of Workdoku (The Official Book of Wordoku #2: Sudoku Puzzles for Word Lovers (Wordoku), The Official Book of Wordoku #3: Sudoku Puzzles for Word Lovers, etc., also by the same author), the grid is composed of nine distinct letters instead of digits. You're also given a trivia clue where the answer is a nine letter word/phrase hidden in the puzzle. The trivia clues are taken from Trivial Pursuit (which edition is unclear). Solving the trivia clue helps you solve one of the rows or columns, or else can appear in a diagonal. Even if you don't know the trivia answer, the puzzles are still solvable.

At this point, I've only worked the first few puzzles but it still looks to be a great break from the regular 9 x 9 Sudoku.

If you're a real trivia fan though, I would suggest Trividoku which keeps the number puzzle aspect of Sudoku and adds in trivia matching.

3.0 out of 5 stars Solutions are sometimes too obvious..., July 5, 2011
By 
Jodi Chase (Pittsburgh, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: TRIVIAL PURSUIT Sudoku (Paperback)
Although I like Frank Longo's puzzles, and I like Word-dukos, this book left me a bit cold, as the result is an answer to a question. When I look at the question and immediately know the answer, there is no fun in solving the puzzle. So far, I have known about half of the answers immediately, so those puzzles are worthless to me. To me, the fun of the word-duko is the solution at the end, and I don't get that from these puzzles.
