For those who do not know Sudoku, it is a number game that calls for a player's patience and logical skills. The game can be complicated though it is quite simple at first glance. It is composed of a 9x9 grid with 9 columns, 9 rows and 9 squares with 9 small squares inside. Its objective is to fill up the squares with numbers 1-9 provided they will only appear once in the column, the row and in the bigger square. This simple rule makes the game ultra difficult and addicting as hell.
Each puzzle have some boxes already filled up with the correct answer although you would think that the lesser number of squares filled up the more difficult the game is.
