Touch Anyone solved a Sudoku on the KT?

IxiaAurea · 11-16-2011, 05:36 AM

One time, I spent so many minutes trying to solve one and so I opened a sudoku solver on the net and typed in the numbers and it told me the sudoku could not be solved?! I'm just wondering whether anyone has successfully completed one and is there a message that says you completed it?

I think I've completed a few.. Maybe you just got a bad one.. :P

Update: A message box appears.. "You Won! Congratulations."

I have completed one. When done, I got congratulation message. There seem to be several difficulty levels as well, accessible from menu.

Ooh, so there is a message! I find the simple ones in KT so time consuming/quite hard (th ones I get usually have a whole 9x9 square box blank) and I usually am able to complete the novice ones in the newspapers...

I've completed a number of them (yes, I'm a little addicted.) It's true that even the easy ones can be harder than what other sources that post Sudoku puzzles consider to be easy.

The main reason why even the lowest-difficulty ones are difficult is that, unlike sudokus in the newspaper or books (I've got 4 and a half sudoku books to get through before I buy more, which will be in maybe February :P - yay, dollar stores!

), and most sudoku computer programs, the puzzles generated on the Touch randomize which numbers are shown right off the bat rather than using a mirrored pattern.

I generally manage to solve all but the Hard ones. The latter I would say are 50:50 for solvability. It would be nice if you could save the in-progress one.

I haven't completed one yet, I know it's just an added goodie but I wish it could resume your puzzle where you left off.

I second this. I've delayed my reading for up to an hour a couple times because I was stuck on a puzzle and didn't want to "lose" it.

I mentioned this ages ago. And in my case I had the correct solution it just refused to accept it as correct. And I did it with a solver as well to verify it was correct.

I don't have time to squint and try to figure on Sudoku on the Kobo Touch ... I'm too busy playing Soduko on the Kobo Vox!
