Over twenty years ago Nikoli, the Japanese puzzle and game company,
started publishing a curious logic puzzle called Sudoku. The rest
of the world recently joined the Sudoku craze by using computer
programs to create puzzles, but Nikoli is the only company that
still crafts their puzzles the old-fashioned way: by hand. As "Ad
Age" wrote in a profile, the Nikoli credo is "The Best Puzzles Are
Made by Happy Employees." And for solvers, it really does make a
difference--there's an elegance and symmetry to the puzzles, plus a
sense of interaction. The puzzle-maker knows just when to
encourage, and when to withhold. Puzzles marked "Easy," are easy
because the puzzler leads you through. Those marked "Very Hard" are
exactly that--they pit your mind against the mind of the master,
who seems to share the joy of that moment when one hard-won number
is captured, and the entire puzzle tumbles into place.
An obsessive's collection, "More Original Sudoku" features over
300 puzzles, all in a chunky, easy-to-carry format (it even fits
into a standard jeans-size back pocket). An introduction shows how
to solve the puzzles at various levels of difficulty, and it
includes a tutorial on how to create your own hand-made Sudoku.
Here's wishing you "Gokouun o inorimasu!" (Good luck!)
