• Asterisk Sudoku – Symmetric sudoku with dots in an asterisk-like pattern
• Random Sudoku – Completely randomized dots

• The numbers are placed exactly once in each row, column or region for each overlapping grid
• Numbers (regions) that are part of more than one grid, have to match in each grid
• Each puzzle has exactly one single solution
• Difficulty levels are based on the logical operations to solve the puzzle, such as removing numbers that are already used, using the only square where a given number can be placed, and advanced rules such as naked or hidden pairs, triples and quads, X-Wing, simple coloring, and more.
