Each Sunday, I try to provide you a bit more of a challenge than the usual Classic 9x9 Word Sudoku puzzle. Not the ridiculously hard challenge currently in syndication-16x16 Sudoku puzzles in papers like my home town's paper, The Oregonian. I can solve a lot of Sudoku puzzles, but hardly ever a 16x16.
So I designed a medium challenge: a 12x12 Hidden Word Sudoku puzzle, where you use the letters in the provided anagram to solve the puzzle and discover the hidden word or phrase running down the diagonal. The twists include 3x4 internal rectangles instead of squares, letters instead of numbers, and an anagram that often provides an obscure clue that is recognizable as such only after you solve the puzzle.
CULPA BIT OMEN
Sunday Challenge: 12x12 Hidden Word Puzzle
Each row, column and 3x4 rectangle contain the letters in the word or phrase exactly once
The hidden word or phrase is spelled down the diagonal
Each row, column and 3x4 rectangle contain the letters in the word or phrase exactly once
The hidden word or phrase is spelled down the diagonal
Solution first thing Monday morning.
Thanks,
