Complete Results


Top quality puzzles. They were complete fun to solve and the concept usage was applied very effectively. Peephole Sudoku and Rossini Sudoku were my favourite from the set. In Peephole, for a few seconds I thought it had multiple solutions, but there was a nice little corner that made it unique. That was class! The 'anti-Rossini' solved very beautifully and logically.
I'm surprised to see so few people solve Numerologidoku. I thought after getting the sums, it solved very nicely.



Good start to the new year. Hoping to see more participants and more enjoyment in the tests to come!
