Mind Games

Jigsawdoku. Try options Medium 6x6 using the "picture" type tiles. You can use Hints to check a guess, but you should never need to. My fastest is 1:23 1:06 0:51 0:48 0:41 0:38 with no hints.

Kakuro. Scroll down and do the puzzle of the day. To pencil in possible numbers into 1 square, you need to use Space+click. Their lists of permutations are sometimes incomplete, so you might want to download their Kakuro helper.

Websudoku. I prefer Easy if I want to kill a few minutes. Hard can be solved with regular logic. Evil is...evil.

My fastest jigsawdoku medium 6x6 is now 1:12.

The May 17, 2006 Kakuro.com daily puzzle had a bug -- solving it required two 8's in the sum for 32; no email response yet from programmer.

I love this blog. It's so short, sweet, and organized. Keep up the fine work, my friend.

Thanks Samm! Notice the posts and comments mention the date with the time. I had to adjust the format of mine slightly (from standard) to get what I wanted.

0:41 for medium 6x6. Some guy in the forums did it in 0:23, and averages 0:35. Yikes.
