Battle Of Sudoku

Battle of Sudoku: A Multiplayer Sudoku Showdown!

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

Before you begin, choose a difficulty level (1-6, 1 being easiest, 6 hardest). This sets the initial numbers, 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 (configurable, default 30 seconds). The penalized player is temporarily unable to make moves.

Points:

Correct numbers earn points, with higher difficulty levels awarding more points per correct number. Incorrect numbers deduct points (half the value of a correct placement).

Winning:

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

Team Play:

Team play allows two teams to compete. Join a team (1 or 2), and once at least two players join a team, team play begins. Points are added to the team's total score, and notes/filled colors are shared among teammates, facilitating collaborative strategies.

Solving Tools:

A toolbar offers tools to aid in solving:

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