On my way back from France, I picked up a Sudoku book due to my prediction that I would be mighty bored without books to read on the flight. And so, I became introduced to this dumb game. After a few, I picked it up and it turns out to be not too difficult.
I don’t really understand why it’s so popular, maybe people think that it’s a math game (when it’s not), or because it requires at times, a form of dumb luck (which square to go for next). It is because of the latter, that I don’t think this game is very fun because once you find that key square, the answers start flowing, or you are back at the dumb luck stage again!
