Sine Nomine Software are pleased to announce yet another new version
of the popular Sudoku program SuperDoku.
Version 1.07 extends the existing range of puzzles to include Samurai
puzzles in both "killer" and "hidden word" flavours, as well as fixing
a few bugs.
You can download it from
http://www.sinenomine.freeserve.co.uk/software/
For our Dutch users there is now also a Dutch version available -
thanks to Machiel Jansen for his translations.
SuperDoku can generate, give hints on, and solve for you:
* Normal Sudoku puzzles (4x4, 6x6, 9x9, 16x16, 25x25 and Samurai
grids)
* Killer puzzles (4x4, 6x6, 9x9 and Samurai grids)
* Hidden word puzzles (4x4, 6x6, 9x9 and Samurai grids)
Samurai puzzles contain 5 overlapping 9x9 grids in the shape of an X.
They are solved just like standard 9x9 puzzles but with the added
twist that 36 squares appear in more than one puzzle and have to
satisfy the rules for each.
Killer puzzles are Sudoku grids with areas drawn out in which no value
may be repeated and where the values in each area must add up to the
total shown, as well as obeying the normal Sudoku rules.
Hidden word puzzles are just like ordinary Sudoku puzzles but with
letters instead of numbers, and when the puzzle is finished a word
will be found reading across a row or down a column. A general
English word list is included with version 1.07; other lists can be
downloaded from our website.
You can save and load puzzles, print them out to solve in your
tea-break or export them as Draw files for inclusion in other
documents.
The demo version of SuperDoku offers you 720 different puzzles (10 of
each sort at different difficulty levels) but has some additional
limitations.
However, the full version costs a mere 5 pounds - see our website or
SuperDoku's help file for details on how to register. Once you have
registered, SuperDoku will create a huge variety of puzzles to keep
you entertained for many years to come. All upgrades are free to
registered users.
