Sudoku Square

THIS IS A GREAT GAME FOR ONE OR TWO PEOPLE. NOT TOO HARD AND STILL CHALLENGING. I AM 85 YEARS OLD AND PLAY IT EVERY DAY BY MYSELF. I HAVE BOUGHT 6 GAMES FOR GIFTS

I was looking to replace my game of a similar game and saw that this allows for more combinations and solves some problems I had with the other game. I really like that the board has pins and the pieces have holes that match up. It keeps the pieces in place while you complete. Super fun game. I highly recommend it for teaching kids about spatial organization.

Great for youngsters

This was a gift for my kids and they love it! It's fun for the whole family! We all take turns playing and helping each other.

This is a cool new take on sudoku. I think it's always nice to have a small collection of puzzles that can be played without the use of batteries. This one set caught my eye because it could be played singly or with another person. I also love that there's no challenge cards to keep track of. Instead, you move onto the next challenge by rolling some dice and placing the pieces where indicated. The puzzle container also becomes 2 play boards. And there are enough pieces and dice for 2 players. The pieces all seem well made, though the storage solution is a bit lacking. It comes with a few plastic bags to store all the pieces in. However, they really aren't big enough. I fixed the issue with a couple sandwich bags. The other issue is that the boards don't stay closed. So, you will want to keep the cardboard sleeve that the game comes in. But, other than that, it's a very nice puzzle to pass the time and help strengthen those brain muscles without the use of electronics.

This is a very simple game to learn and so much fun to play. It can be played head-to-head as a race or solo. I was a few seconds behind my youngest on our last match and although we both had the same starting board (the dice rolled show where to put the round blue blocker pegs), we both found different solutions that work. It was a good life lesson, too! Sometimes in life there are different ways to solve a problem. Sometimes there is only one. What a fun and quick game! To play: 1) Roll the dice. 2) Match shape and letter on the grid and place the round dark blue blocker blocks. (Be careful of the two different "u" shaped die. See the second photo.) 3) Use the colorful wooden blocks to fill in the rest of the board, trying to use them all. 4) If playing with two people, you can race to see who finishes first if want. Alternately, you can both cheer each other on and see the differences in the solutions.

We have family game night a few times a month. Got this as an interesting addition to the rotation. We have not played the game yet but the quality of it is very good. The plastic is thick and all the parts seem like they will hold up well...especially because it is so portable. One of my kids is obsessed with Sudoku and we all love puzzles so this will be the best of both worlds.It does not use numbers but is still a visual puzzle that will help stimulate your brain. I am always looking for things that can be played solo so the kid that loves games can get her "fix" any time. I will give an update after family game night.
