There are four difficulties to choose from.
All four puzzles have the same solution.

A) Novice.
B) Apprentice (mainstream edition).
C) Master (53 Intersections, 2 Naked Pairs, 3 Naked Triplets, 3 Naked Quads, 4 Hidden Pairs, 3 XY-Wings in g4). Select to view GRID numbers.
D) Chief Wizard. Solvable using logic only? JSudoku needs 1 Recursively Solve, which makes 38 guesses and traverses 1326196554 nodes.
