Location: United States | Clarification request: For True or Lie Sudoku, the "clues" only refer to the small digits that are given in the grid, and not the large ones, correct? In other words, any given large numbers will be in that location in the solution? |

I took the test online and it was nightmare to solve True or Lie and Substitution puzzles, because when I enter pencilmarks into cells, number 1 was covered by given little digits (letters) so it was very easy to overlook that pencilmark. |

Location: India | A very difficult test. It didnt helpthat i broke fortress 9x9 and true lie 9x9 . Also , i was stuck in odd even count for a long time. Could have done better had i not broken the two sudokus. My favourite were Classics , True lie and substitution . |

Substitution 9x9 looked difficult because of the words but the solve was fairly easier. Not much time was needed for deciphering. Renban 9x9 needed some tough break-ins. Renban 6x6 had some interesting logic behind it. Odd Even Count 9x9 needed some counting in some of the circles. Fortress and True or Lie 9x9 were fairly smooth solves. Most 6x6s were of medium difficulty but the points reflected it.

A Very challenging test with tough sudokus.Getting stuck or breaking a sudoku can easily cascade one's troubles and lead to well short of finishing a contest.
Thankfully, I had a smooth run and didn't break any sudoku.
My favorites of the set are Odd even count (13), True or Lie (9) and Fortress (8).
Thanks Hemant and Pranav for a tough, engrossing and enjoyable set !! |
