Sudoku (pronounced "sue-doh-coo"), the popular pen-and-paper puzzle phenomenon, has taken the nation by storm -- and now you can play without getting newsprint on your hands.
Nintendo's "Sudoku Gridmaster" takes advantage of the DS Lite's touch-screen display to solve puzzles with a couple of taps with the stylus. In case you haven't yet played Sudoku, this addictive head-scratcher challenges you to fill all the blank squares on a 9x9 grid with the correct numbers. The catch? Each row and column must contain numbers 1 though 9, with no repeats. What's more, the nine 3x3 boxes that make up the grid must also contain numbers 1 through 9. "Sudoku Gridmaster" offers more than 400 puzzles, all created by Nikoli, the original Japanese creators of Sudoku (www.nikoli.co.jp). The game also offers helpful tutorials, four difficulty levels and awards for solving puzzles.
There's nothing offensive in this game. But a number game like Sudoku is a great way to get kids to learn while gaming.
