Post subject: | Compilation of Sudoku Variants |
I'm compiling a list of all of the variants I can find. I am intentionally restricting this list to Sudoku (mostly 9x9 grids) and not including other (non-Sudoku) puzzle types. Obviously, these can be combined, as well (such as a Jigsaw Killer Samurai). Can anyone add to this list? (I did not include one-off types that have popped up here and there over the years.) Corrections also welcome. I can post examples of these if needed.
- Asterisk - Calcudoku (Mathdoku, KenKen[tm]; math operation cages) - Center Dot - Chess Moves - Clover - Consecutive/Non-consecutive - Diagonal (Sudoku-X) - Disjoint Groups (Compass; positional colors/groups) - Even-Odd - Extra Groups (miscellaneous patterns) - Girandola - Greater-than/Less-than - Meandoku (the mean of two adjacent cells marked as >5, <5, =5) - Killer (Sumdoku, Samunamupure; addition cages) - Touchless Wrapper (Toroidal Anti-Chess) - VX (cages with sums to 5 and 10) - Windoku (Hyperdoku, NRC) Gattai (multiple overlapping grids) - Butterfly (4) - Clueless Explosion (10) - Clueless Special (10) - Flower (4) - Harakiri (8) - Kazaguruma (5; Windmill) - Kunoichi (5) - Large Gattai (miscellaneous shapes and sizes) - Ninja (9) - Samurai (5) - Sensei-1 (2, 1-nonet overlap) - Sensei-2 (2, 2-nonet overlap; Double-Doku, Two-Doku) - Sensei-4 (2, 4-nonet overlap) - Sensei-misc (2, miscellaneous overlap; Conjoined) - Shaolin (25) - Shogun (11) - Sohei (4; Ring) - Sumo (13; Super Samurai) - Taiken (21; Circle) - TripleDoku-1 (3, 1-nonet overlap) - TripleDoku-2 (3, 2-nonet overlap) - TripleDoku-4 (3, 4-nonet overlap) - TripleDoku-misc (3, miscellaneous overlap) - Wing-3 (3, V-shape) - Wing-5 (5, V-shape) Irregular Nonets - Jigsaw - No Boxes - No Boxes Disjoint Groups (Plum) - Toroidal Large Grid - 12x12 - 16x16 - Miscellaneous Sizes (7x7, 8x8, 25x25, etc.) Sequential (Relay, Twin) Sukaku (Pencil Mark; no givens) |
