Download or read book Killer Sudoku 1 written by Collins UK Staff and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2006-01-24 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just when you thought it was safe to pick up a pencil Killer Su Doku is based on the original Su Doku grid, with the same rules and numbers—1 to 9—but with an added deadly twist. This time there is an element of arithmetic involved and there are few, if any, clues. The aim is to not only complete every row, column, and cube so that it contains the digits 1 to 9, but to also fill in the outlined cubes so they add up to the same number. Hints to solve the puzzle are hidden in the joined squares where only one combination of numbers applies. In the case of joined squares, if the printed number is 3, it should be 1 and 2 that go into the squares. Likewise, in the case of three joined squares, if the printed number is 6, the only combination possible is 1, 2, and 3. To add one final fiendish level, each puzzle also has a time worked out by its Japanese creators so you can try to beat the clock.

Download or read book Color Sudoku written by Philip Riley and published by Sterling Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sudoku fans will welcome this bright new twist to the popular puzzles! Every one of these ingenious creations--from "Bold X" to "Rainbow Up"--makes colors and patterns part of the solving fun. And although each puzzle maintains the normal 9x9 grid and follows the basic rules of the game, every style adds an additional restriction to intensify the challenge. In "Worms," for example, swirly, squirmy shapes fill the grids; the numbers increase as you work your way from head to tail. "Even/Odd" features squares in two colors, depending on whether the number to fill it is even or odd. And in "Positional Board," no two of the red squares can be the same number. They're all lots of fun!

Download or read book The Revisionaries written by A. R. Moxon and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A modern-day classic."—Ron Charles, Washington Post “A spectacular invention.”—The New York Times "Compulsively readable."—NPR Things do not bode well for Father Julius. . . A street preacher decked out in denim robes and running shoes, Julius is a source of inspiration for a community that knows nothing of his scandalous origins. But when a nearby mental hospital releases its patients to run amok in his neighborhood, his trusted if bedraggled flock turns expectantly to Julius to find out what’s going on. Amid the descending chaos, Julius encounters a hospital escapee who babbles prophecies of doom, and the growing palpable sense of impending danger intensifies . . . as does the feeling that everyone may be relying on a street preacher just a little too much. Still, Julius decides he must confront the forces that threaten his congregation—including the peculiar followers of a religious cult, the mysterious men and women dressed all in red seen fleetingly amid the bedlam, and an enigmatic smoking figure who seems to know what’s going to happen just before it does. The Revisionaries is a wildly imaginative, masterfully rendered, and suspenseful tale that conjures the bold outlandish stylishness of Thomas Pynchon, Margaret Atwood, and Alan Moore—while being unlike anything that’s come before.

Download or read book Strimko Book 1 written by Tanya Grabarchuk and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strimko is a logic number puzzle invented by The Grabarchuk Family in 2008. It is based on the idea of Latin squares described by a Swiss mathematician and physicist Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) in the 18th century. All Strimko puzzles are solvable with a pure logic, no special knowledge is required. Strimko uses only three basic elements: rows, columns, and streams. All elements have equal numbers of cells, and the goal is to make each row, column, and stream containing the whole set of specified numbers. Cells in the grid are organized into several streams of equal length, which often run diagonally and even branching. Such mechanics creates entangled patterns resulting in interesting challenges and unusual logic. This book contains a specially designed collection of 150 easy-to-master puzzles with 4 x 4 through 7 x 7 grid sizes. Puzzles are arranged from the easiest to the hardest ones so that you'll progress in solving skills with each next puzzle. Strimko challenges were handcrafted by Helen, Tanya, Serhiy, and Peter Grabarchuk, and up to date hundreds of original Strimko puzzles were published in various forms and platforms.
