Missing Letter Hidden Word Sudoku Dave Thompson Apr

Classic Sudoku puzzles always use the same symbols to fill in cells: the digits 1-9.

In Word Sudoku, however, each puzzle has a different set of symbols-the letters in a word or phrase. The puzzles are a little bit harder than classic Sudoku because you have to learn the allowable symbols all over again each time you begin a new puzzle.

This book takes this idea three steps further.

First, you don't get the actual word or phrase. You get an anagram instead-a phrase that's a rearrangement of the letters of the hidden word or phrase. For example, English and shingle are anagrams; alerting, altering, integral, relating and triangle are all anagrams. You'll discover the hidden word or phrase as you solve each puzzle.

Second, every puzzle anagram in this book shares three letters: KAY. Since you know this, these three letters are missing from each puzzle anagram.

Third, I don't stick to just 9x9 puzzles. You'll find the easy 4x4 and 6x6, the unusual 8x8, the difficult 10x10, the devilish 12x12-and the unexpected, even fiendish 5x5 and 7x7!
