I’ve always enjoyed Ken Ken a lot more than Sudokus, kudos for trying something new!
My problem with Sudoku is that you have to guess on higher difficulties. This is why I like Picross a lot more, no guessing at all, it’s all logical. How is Ken Ken in this regard?
You don’t have to guess with sudoku, I’ve done around 15 000 puzzles or so by now, and even the hardest have logic behind them, of course you can guess if you can’t figure out the logic, but every one of them if you get them from a quality source has no guessing, and a single solution.
Okay, so I looked it up. Apparently, you don’t need to guess in proper Sudoku, when there is only one solution, but apparently there are also many Sudoku, sometimes printed, which have more than one solution, and so you require guessing.
Also, some sites mention “guessing” as a technique, which I probably took it to mean that you have to do it.
Since I believed guessing is required, I would leave the puzzle where I got a bit stuck, assuming this is where I need to guess. I have a Sudoku book here somewhere, going to take it out and try “Sudoku solver” on the ones I stuck, to figure out the techniques I am missing.
Thanks for the comment! If I start to like Sudoku again, the blame would be all on you! 😀
In this respect is exactly like Picross, always logic involved (or mathematics in this case), never wild guessing
