Finally I have added another Rubik’s puzzle game called Rubik’s Sudoku to my puzzle collection.

Rubik’s Sudoku  comes in a nice box (like most puzzles I have from Think fun – formerly known as Binary Arts) with a small drawer where you can store pieces of the Sudoku puzzle and the booklet. In this booklet you can find tips and a explanation how to solve Sudoku’s and 100 Sudoku puzzles at different levels.

Buy Rubik’s Sudoku from Amazon.com. Happy Puzzling!

Just click objects on the screen to search them, or click orange triangles to change your direction. There may be something important hidden in the place where it seems unreachable, or looks empty. Click ‘about item’ button, and you can examine the items you’ve got more closely. You can choose one item from the list to take effect over objects on main screen or other items.

You will not be the first one [Read More...]
