Plastic is used for the pieces.
Obviously, you can flip and turn the cubes if you want to make any combination you want, but typical Sudoku puzzles have 81 squares (9x9), while this one has only 36 It is because of this that you are unable to correlate it with Due to the random nature of Sudoku patterns, in addition, each cube in this game contains four colors instead of the usual three As a result, you cannot place only two or three "numbers", but the entire cube must be placed. In addition, it requires no mathematic theories to solve since it's a 36 square puzzle, and once you understand the concept you can solve it from scratch.
A random cube can be used as a starting point. In fact, there are about a half million possible solutions out of two trillion. I have a lot of fun playing this game. A tutorial for it can be found on YouTube. Just search for "Dan Avi Sudoku Cube Tutorial".

Sudoku will keep you occupied for hours, plus it is easier on the eyes than regular sudoku. As I expected, it didn't come with a booklet that had initial setups to start the system. All you have to do is shuffle the cubes and start with one in an arbitrary slot, then fill the rest based on the previous one. that's what I do, there was no real instruction given to me. Although I still rate it 5 stars, a few instructions would be very helpful.
It's basically like a blank sudoku sheet in 3D, which is not exactly what I had imagined it would be. When I bought it, I was expecting it to work like all the logic puzzles I've bought my kids and would have a booklet with increasing levels of difficulty. This would be very cool indeed if your mind worked like that, but I wasn't expecting this. Neither my younger son nor I could figure it out, but my older son was able to do so. Our household found it very few times replayable, and it was a waste of our You should only buy it if you are interested in starting COMPLETELY from scratch.
It is an extremely challenging game, so it's great for people who don't give up easily. In the event that this describes you, I would recommend it.
The fact that it combines two of my favorite types of puzzles is why I knew I'd enjoy it. After being a regular puzzle solver for a few years, I was able to figure out this game within 10 minutes of playing it, and I was able to do the first solve within a couple minutes of playing it. I have 15 minutes left. Although, I'm sure someone who is new to puzzles would indeed have a hard time solving it at first (though for someone who has never solved a puzzle before, this may The task is challenging, so I'm not going to tell you just how hard it is). Another thing I like is the fact that you don't have to set anything up (as you normally do with Sudoku, where you have to put the numbers in first) and that you just take out the cubes, mix them up, and start solving again. It was also amazing to see the packaging and its high quality In addition to the box itself, there's a storage tray and transparent plastic cover as well. The package also comes with some instructions and tips in a small booklet. It's a great puzzle that I would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone.
This is a really nice puzzle, and I like it very much! The pieces are sturdy and well-built. I had no idea that it would be so challenging. Although I was challenged, it was still a challenge. It's my suspicion that the age range might be off, which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. Despite the fact that this was for his 9th birthday, my son, who was targeting it, found it too challenging and would rather give up and I found it too demanding for him In addition to that, he normally does well with color-type puzzles, such as Rubik's cubes. It might be more fun for him when he's an older child, when I'm sure he'll enjoy it In my opinion, the recommended age range should be at least 11 or 12 years old, not 8 or under.
Soduko has always been an enjoyable game for me, and this one does not Kids will enjoy this challenge but it is challenging for adults as well as an excellent way to improve problem-solving Playing the game is fun.
In our quest for critical thinking and logic-based activities, we intended to promote these skills. There is no better game for that, and I like the fact that it can be used by kids of all ages.
This was a gift for one of my nephews who is 9 years old. As soon as he woke up, he was furious. My first attempt was also unsuccessful (which is not surprising since I love sudoku puzzles), but it was super challenging for me to solve. I do not think kids should do this. It may become easier with time, but I do not recommend it.
