Extra Word Sudoku (Qudoku!) Puzzle for Thursday, 5/9/2013

All this week, I’m presenting a series of extra Word-from-word Sudoku puzzles and Hidden Word Sudoku puzzles based on the word shambolic.

Let’s start with two more very recognizable phrases that contain all the letters in shambolic.

OBLATE
6x6 Word Sudoku Puzzle
Each row, column, 2x3 rectangle and set of circled cells contains the letters in the word exactly once

CURVED
6x6 Word Sudoku Puzzle
Each row, column, 2x3 rectangle and set of circled cells contains the letters in the word exactly once

WHIMSY
6x6 Word Sudoku Puzzle
Each row, column, 2x3 rectangle and set of circled cells contains the letters in the word exactly once
Copy circled letters to the corresponding numbered cells in the quote grid to spell out some common words and phrases containing all the letters in the word SHAMBOLIC



Next, let’s discover two words inside the word shambolic—made up of all the letters in shambolic. In each case, I give you an anagram of this inside word; discover it by solving the Word Sudoku puzzle.


CHASM BOIL
9x9 Hidden Word Sudoku Puzzle
Each row, column, 3x3 square and the top-left-to-bottom-right diagonal contains the letters in the anagram exactly once
The hidden word is spelled down that diagonal

CHAOS LIMB
9x9 Hidden Word Sudoku Puzzle
Each row, column, 3x3 square and the top-left-to-bottom-right diagonal contains the letters in the anagram exactly once
The hidden word is spelled down that diagonal

Solutions tomorrow morning.

Thanks,
--Dave
