Battle Of Sudoku

Battle of Sudoku: A Multiplayer Sudoku Showdown!

Love Sudoku? Then get ready for Battle of Sudoku, a multiplayer version where you compete against other players or teams! The goal remains the classic Sudoku challenge: fill a 9x9 grid with digits so each column, row, and 3x3 subgrid contains all numbers from 1 to 9.

Before you begin, choose a difficulty level (1-6, 1 being easiest, 6 hardest). This sets the initial numbers on the grid, which all players must solve simultaneously. Everyone starts with the same puzzle.

Game Modes:

The game offers two modes, selectable in the options:

• Show Opponent's Correct Numbers: Each correctly placed number is visible to all players. Only the first player to correctly place a number earns points for that number.
• Hide Opponent's Correct Numbers: Correct numbers are not visible to other players, allowing multiple players to earn points for the same number.

Time-Outs: Incorrectly placed numbers result in a time-out (default 30 seconds, configurable in options), preventing the player from making further moves while others continue.

Scoring: Correct numbers earn points, with higher difficulty levels awarding more points per correct number. Incorrect numbers deduct half the points earned for a correct placement.

Winning: The game ends when the puzzle is completely solved. The player with the most points wins. If "Show Opponent's Correct Numbers" is disabled, the game ends when one player solves the puzzle, though this doesn't grant extra points; other players can still win by having fewer incorrect entries.

Team Play: Battle of Sudoku also features team play (teams 1 and 2). Teams share notes and filled colors, fostering collaborative strategies.

Solving Tools: A toolbar provides tools to aid in solving:

• Pen Tool: Add notes (mini-numbers) to squares. Clicking a number already present removes it.
• Fill Mode: Change the background color of squares.
