Sudoku Xtra 11 is
now available for download as a PDF, as well as
pre-printed from Lulu and
also from Amazon.com (eligible for free super-saver shipping!), and it's packed with even more puzzles than last issue!
The cover features a Boomerang Samurai, made up of 10 overlapping 8x8 puzzles, and then later on there's a double-page spread with a real X factor, the facing Return of the Boomerang 1 & 2 - consecutive and odd/even-pair variants.
There are heyawake, yajilin, nurikabe, masyu, dominoes, calcudoku, slitherlink, killer sudoku prime, killer sudoku pro +/-, variant size jigsaw, hitori and many more puzzle types. And there's a second huge 13-grid 9x9 Samurai, with a Consecutive Samurai 13-X - every bit as huge and intimidating as you might imagine!
The Community Puzzles section this month welcomes another new contributor, Deb Mohanty, a key member of the Indian puzzle community and author of some very well-respected puzzles and competitions. His "No 4 in a Row" puzzles will challenge your ability to both spot the "obvious" and also reason using uniqueness logic! There are also more Labyrinth puzzles, more Haijo from Vexus, an alternative set of Yajilin from Thomas Collyer, and the hexagonal 'Hexagodoku' from Clarity Media. David Millar's mighty Knight Samurai Sudoku +/- will test your Sudoku variant skills to the limit, with its five grids of attacking knights and positive and negative numbers. And that's just some of what's in the section this month.
