Additional Features

The New York Times SuDoku includes several additional game features.

The Self Play feature is like an answer key at the back of a SuDoku book. If this feature is on, you can view all of the cor- rect entries for the puzzle by touching the CONFIRM button for two seconds. If you’re stumped and just want to see the correct answer for a single square, press the HINT button.

The FALSE FLASH function enables you to complete a puzzle with or without knowing whether an entry is incorrect. If you input an incorrect entry when the function is on, you will know because the incorrect entry will flash. This function is great for beginners.

If you are more advanced and do not want to know if your entry is incorrect, turn this func- tion off.

In addition, you can even play against your friends by playing the same puzzle. At the end of each puzzle, you get a final score. Challenge a friend to the same puzzle and see who gets the top SuDoku score!

Scoring

Scores are computed by totalling the following:

10 POINTS: Filling in an empty square correctly.

10 POINTS: Completing a three- by-three grid correctly.

90 POINTS: Completing an entire puzzle correctly.

Tips

Use the following tips in your game and you’ll be a SuDoku master in no time.

If you get stuck during a game, try one of the following suggestions.

If you can’t figure out a cor- rect number for a square, press the HINT button for an answer.

If you believe you have incor- rectly inputted a number, you can delete it by pressing the

UNDO/NEW GAME button.

Sometimes when you get stuck, it’s best to take a break and return to the puzzle later with a clearer mind. Press the LOAD/SAVE button to save your puzzle. When you are ready to give it another shot, press the LOAD/SAVE button to return to your saved puzzle.

Special Care and Handling

•Avoid rough handling such as bumping or dropping.

•Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. For best results, use between the temperatures of 39º F and 100º F (4º C and 38º C).
