Passion For Puzzles

For the Sudoku die hards there is Monster Sudoku, also called Dodeka Sudoku. It is bigger and can be more difficult than normal Sudoku's. Monster Sudoku can have a 12x12 or 16x16 grid.

Times Online offers daily a 12x12-grid Dodeka sudoku with 12 regions each being 4x3, which has to be completed with 0 through F (used in hexadecimal). Some Monster Sudoku's also use 1 through G rather in stead of 0 through F.

The rules of the new Dodeka and Monster Sudoku's are exactly the same, but more numbers and letters are needed. The 12x12 Sudoku puzzles require the numbers 1 to 9 and A, B and C in each row, column and 3x4 regions. The 16x16 Sudoku puzzles need 0 to 9, and the letters A to F.

Monster Sudoku's just add a new experience to Sudoku lovers. You just have to solve a Monster Sudoku to experience this feeling. You can find Monster Sudoku's at Daily Sudoku and Dodeka Sudoku's can be found at the Sunday Times Online.
