A useful feature of Windokus is that, as well as the four given windows W, X, Y and Z in the diagram below, there are five hidden windows A, B, C, D and E. Each of these windows must contain the numbers 1 to 9; the normal rules for rows, columns and nonets also apply. It's easy to work out the hidden windows A and B, which are the remaining groups of cells in C234 and C678, similarly hidden windows C and D which are the remaining groups of cells in R234 and R678. Then there are 9 remaining cells R159C159 which form the final hidden window E. Thanks Simon for explaining these hidden windows here. |

Yeah, I didn't get those at first, either, but they sure have come in handy since then. I'm currently working on tarek's Bank Holiday Kazaguruma #3, in which the four outer grids are all windoku. I've messed it up several times, but hopefully I'll get it done this time. |
