Sudoku Quickie is a placement puzzle that is played in the game table. Quickie is an anti-bore tool. It brings you one of the most interesting materials to kill your boredom! It is fun and joy to play with.
In the original game our task is to enter a number from 1 through 9 in each cell of a grid, most frequently a 9×9 matrix made up of 3×3 cells called regions, starting with different numbers entered in some cells. Recognize that hard Sudokus can take time - a lot of time, sometimes an hour or more to be solved.
You may need an anti-bore tool while you are in a long queue, in a greatly massive line, but it usually takes no more than 10-15 minutes to get what you are waiting for. Fortunately waiting in such a queue turned out to be piece of the enjoyment with mobile gadgets.
Quickie helps you kill a bunch of time. Queue etiquette is not a puzzle any more.
This product is optimized for beginners and casual players. In Quickie you can change the table size: 2x3 in the table of 36 and 2x4 in the table of 64. This is why you have a good chance to solve a table in that 10 minutes.
