DJ Ape .Net – The Home of Perfect Sudoku

A few days ago I announced that there is something special coming up for all fans of Samurai Sudoku puzzles – and here it is:

Sudoku-Samurai.com has been launched!

7 different variations of Samurai Sudoku will be shown on this site.

I realized that it’s been quite a while since I last posted a “vanilla” Samurai Sudoku puzzle, so today, in addition to our regular Tuesday’s Samurai Sudoku X, you get a special treat of another Samurai puzzle.

Enjoy!

Here is another of our unique Butterfly Samurai puzzles! It consists of 20 (twenty) classic 9×9 Sudoku sub-puzzles. There are 5 groups of 4 sub-puzzles. Each group of 4 is arranged Butterfly-style, and those 5 groups are arranged Samurai-style.

Please make sure you understand how the puzzles are arranged before attempting to solve the puzzle.

To be honest, I haven’t kept track of all the different sudoku variants that I have posted and which ones I never posted, but I think that this is the first Consecutive TwoDoku X sudoku puzzle ever. I will check in my archive when I find some time to see if this is true or not.

Anyway, “pipes” (“|” symbols) between cells mean that those cells must contain consecutive numbers. If there is no pipe – those cells can’t contain consecutive numbers. This second part of the rule is very important but also easy to forget.

I have only posted one puzzle of this kind so far and here is a new one – “<>” puzzle in Samurai layout! No given numbers to begin with, instead, there are greater than and less than signs all over the place. Still, this puzzle can be solved by using deduction only, no guessing is required!
