Daily Consecutive/Non-consecutive puzzles

Well, it’ time to revive the “Daily Sudoku variants” page. First of all, that page has been renamed to “(Non)consecutive”. Since this variation of Sudoku puzzles has proven to be more popular than odd/even and greater/less than, I have decided to give you one such puzzle every day, Monday to Friday. Hardest puzzles (IQ/Insane) will […]

Nonograms

It seems like I’ve overdone it again – the first Hanjie puzzle posted a few days ago was too big according to many of the visitors! To rectify this problem, I’m posting a smaller one – it’s a 15×15 Hanjie, (griddlers, picross, nonograms) relatively easy, so even those of you who are new to these […]

First INSANE September 27 anniversary

Although it wasn’t “perfect” (it contains singleton cages), most probably this site wouldn’t become popular if it hadn’t been for that puzzle. It was by far the most difficult Killer Sudoku puzzle that the world had seen at that time […]

Clueless Consecutive Sudoku puzzle

How many Sudoku variants are there? I don’t know. To calculate, you’d have to multiply the number of overlapping types with the number of variants that impose additional constraints on each puzzle. I produce puzzles with 5 different constraints: Killer, Odd/Even, Greater/Less than, Consecutive, and Non-Consecutive. But then again, you can put an “X” on […]
