Book Description
We are living in puzzling's golden age right now." --Will Shortz, New York Times A colossal assortment of the six most popular Japanese puzzles--Sudoku, Sodoku X, Kakuro, Masyu, Hitori, and Nurikabe--ranging in difficulty from gentle to diabolical. A collection of four hundred puzzles-six different types of mind-bending games-ranging in difficulty levels so that players of every level will be challenged. Features include a complete answer key along with short, illustrated tutorials for each game-which proves particularly useful for the less familiar challenges, including: * Hitori: The ultimate logic teaser. Begin with a complete Sudoku grid and the object is to "paint" out blocks so that no number appears twice in any row or column. * Masyu: A charming but sophisticated invention where you are required to "string" black-and-white "pearls" with a series of vertical and horizontal lines that form a continuous loop. * Nurikabe: Beginning with a grid of squares scattered with numbers seemingly placed at random, the idea is to paint the black squares to make walls, leaving patches of white behind.

Book Description
In what may be among the most innovative twists on sudoku ever seen, the creative geniuses at Conceptis have literally turned solving puzzles into an art form! Rather than simply figuring out which numbers go where, the solver first uses logic and creative reasoning to choose the correct number to put in each square, and then shades in the corresponding number of squares surrounding it to reveal a surprise picture. For example, the number 6 will be surrounded by six shaded squares. Discovering which six of the eight potential choices are correct adds to the challenge. "
