Sudoku isn't the kind of game you win by mashing buttons. It takes
your little gray cells to solve those little black-and-white cells.
The strategy behind solving these number-placing puzzles can be
very complex, but SudoKlue breaks it down for you.
SudoKlue generates random puzzles or lets you input your own. The
pen and pencil tools let you work as carefully as you like. If you
ask, it can give hints, find errors, and solve individual cells for
you. Links to the SudoKlue site explain the different solving
techniques, which--despite seemingly racy names like "naked
singles" and "hidden pairs"--are written up logically and neatly.
SudoKlue really does show the method behind sudoku madness.
The free version of SudoKlue is basically a demo of SudoKlue Pro.
Many of the options, when clicked, bring up a window exhorting you
to buy the full version. For instance, you can play only five of
the six difficulty levels (although this is four more than the
previous version allowed). The demo also withholds hints about
advanced solving techniques; those are reserved for the paid
version. However, even the basic SudoKlue sharpens your wits
without making you sharpen a pencil.
