Anyone else play this puzzle game? I find myself strangely addicted to it. I picked a book up for my flight, and played it for hours. Its basically a 9x9 grid filled with 3x3 squares of which you have to fill in the numbers 1 through 9. Sounds simple but its devilishly addictive. I worked though a lot of them, and can now get through the 16x16 puzzles after a good try.

I feel like I may give them a try but puzzles normally bore me quickly. I can find a thousand things I would rather do. Do you like other puzzles? Word searches etc?

Yes, the hard ones which involve numbers and a grid with no numbers. If that makes sense.

I have a couple of Su Doku books I've started. They are fun but very time consuming if you get addicted. Good to take on a plane with you if you're going long haul.

the samurai one is the only one i ever try, mostly cos its so damn hard, 5 interlocking squares (standard 9*9) that must fill up as a normal square yet must match across the other squares as well.
Incredabily hard but a good time consumer if there is bgr all to do.

The very concept of it makes me want to kill and kill and not stop killing.
Edit: I also imagine Carol Vordoman might like them, and she advertises on those consolidate all your loan adverts. The bitch.

That web page is the first time I've actually ever seen a Sudoku and it made me almost as angry as when I watch the weather on telly.
(for some reason TV weather presenters make me REALLY mad. Don't get me started on radio weather men, especially Radio Four weathermen. Smug fuckers who need their faces collapsing in my opinion).

Now they are sad or at least 99 years old with hearing problems!!!

You might say that, but Mitchell and Webb is the single funniest show I've ever heard, and it's only available on Radio Four. The News Quiz still blows Have I got News For You out of the water, and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is better than most output on BBC1 despite running for 33 years.
Also, they NEVER play any 'urban' music, which is nice.
(Nor do 6Music, and I love them for it).

I have been doing a few and find them a challenge, the book I had there was different levels, so it was a bit easier.
