Product Description

Product Description

Beware: "The Times Killer Su Doku" gets about as close as possible to the label 'unputdownable'. In Book 2, the challenge continues with the emphasis on the tougher and more deadly puzzles. Prepare to be rattled. "Killer Su Doku" takes the number placing puzzle to the next level by adding an element of arithmetic. One cannot rely on logic alone. The puzzle uses the same 9x9 grid but there is a double test. The aim is not only to complete every row, column and cube so that it contains the digits 1-9, the numbers within a second dotted-line grid have to add up to a specific total. Included are some Gentle and Moderate puzzles to serve as a warm-up, but the emphasis is on the Tricky, Tough and Deadly levels. The word 'fiendish' doesn't even come close!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another good collection of puzzles, 28 Nov 2006
By Mr. R. J. Hole "rick___" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
For the purposes of this review I'll assume you already know how a Killer Su Doku puzzle differs from standard Su Doku. If you have already completed The Times Killer Su Doku Book 1 there will be no surprises here. Just more good puzzles. Personally, having gained experience with Book 1 I now find I usually complete the puzzles within the suggested times which range from 10 minutes to 100 minutes.

As a rule Killer Su Doku puzzles are difficult to get started on and easy to finish whereas normal Su Doku puzzles are easy to get started but difficult to finish. It is very rare to need advanced Su Doku techniques in a Killer Su Doku puzzle so if you find X-wing, Swordfish, etc a bit too esoteric you will probably prefer Killer Su Doku as every puzzle is solvable without having to resort to arcane techniques or trial and error.

5.0 out of 5 stars The next level, 12 Aug 2006
By yformant - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Some might be put off by the difficulty of the later grids in this second anthology from The Times. If you pull your hair out whilst solving the harder Su Doku puzzles, Killer might just live up to its name. However, the simpler puzzles can be solved just as easy as regular Su Doku grids.

For those who have left a battleground of fallen fiendish Su Doku grids in their wake and are starting to fall out of love with the craze, Killer should be the very thing to reignite those dormant passions. Essentially a mix of Su Doku and Kakuro, as well as the 9x9 squares, each grid now has a number of 'cages' with a number in each. The sum of the numbers you place in any cage must match its host number. It sounds confusing but is easy to understand once you've got a grid in front of you. That isn't to say it's always easy to complete...

2.0 out of 5 stars the big let down, 11 Oct 2007
By Sue Crane - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
you make it all the way to the end, the last puzzel, number 100, and you do it wrong and cant see why. take a look at the answers in the back, and oh no, the puzzle dosnt work. even in the answer there is the additional 7 that breaks the puzzle.
big let down to an otherwise challenging entertaingin and fun book

When I first opened this book and saw that Killer Su Doku was rather more complicated than plain Su Doku, I regretted having bought the book. Read more
