Geocache Description:


SUDOKU FUN #4

Did you know that Sudoku puzzles come in various sizes and shapes?  I enjoy doing them all!  I thought it would be fun to introduce some of these "different" sudokus to the caching world.   Online solvers may be a bit more difficult to locate with these ones so why not just sharpen those pencils, get those brain cells working and have the satisfaction of doing it on your own.  Each of these puzzles are rated as easy to medium so give them a try. 

The rules are pretty much identical for all sudukos: each row, column and group of squares enclosed by the bold lines (also called a box), must contain each number (and or letter) only once.  In some cases the boxes are not simple squares.  

 

This is probably going to be the most difficult to solve.  The rules for regular Sudoku apply with one additional rule.  The sums of the cells in a coloured box must equal the total given for that box.  Each digit within the box must be unique.  Good Luck
