Samurai Sudoku
I thought it would be nice to have just a regular puzzle for a change – so today’s Sudoku is a standard, vanilla 5-grid Samurai Sudoku, without any twists!
Just place 1 to 9 into each row and column of the 5 underlying 9×9 grids, and 1 to 9 into each of the bold-lined 3×3 rectangles.
Good luck!

When I was making Sudoku Xtra 10 I wanted to put in a really big Samurai Sudoku puzzle. In the end because I had a square page area available beneath the instructions I went with a 13-grid one (just as a one-off to see what sort of reaction it got!) but I had More >

It’s been quiet here recently – much of my effort has been going on my UK General Election site, How To Vote, although Sudoku Xtra 6 was out on Saturday too. Anyway, there are still 10 days to go to the election but after that I’ll get some time back!

Yum Yum, Fun.

I must say that I really love the visual aspect of this puzzle. The diagonal lines of givens are really neat.
As for the puzzle part, it was very fun (as are all your puzzles
), but didn’t seem very difficult. Either way, great puzzle!
