It’s really just not a collaborative game. You must keep referring back to the tiny card, and it’s kind of a pain especially with multiple kids. But sometimes you think a ball belongs but you’re just wrong. Yes the directions say not to put down a ball until you’re sure, but then you’re holding them mentally and physically (you argue but hey memory skills! Fine motor! Ok sure). There’s no way of knowing which piece is the existing puzzle you’ve just set up to solve and which is the green ball you set down a couple steps ago.
#Colorku sudoku puzzle board game trial
So here is the breaking point for me - much of Sudoku game play is trial and error. Needing to have it in wooden puzzle form is just unnecessary. Nope really can’t play this to pass time on the go. Where previously you could easily transport and play Sudoku in any space, this takes a step backwards from the traditional format. It takes away the convenience of Sudoku puzzles and turns it into a big clumsy thing that takes up space. Why do you need a game board to play this? It’s a big, solid block of wood that’s been CNC-ed (is that a verb? It is now) to have grooves to hold the balls in place. Nope it’s literally just Sudoku on a game board. But I was hoping it was in some way adapted to be collaborative since it’s in board game form. Inside in the directions it says to be played alone or others can help. The outside box doesn’t indicate how many players. And no the board isn’t hollow underneath.ĥ. However the game box doesn’t account for the extra width of the stacked cards. The game comes with a small storage box you put together to hold the game cards after you assemble them. First of all, you must tear apart the flimsy perforated cards. Manufactured in China (many good things are now a days but thought I’d note for anyone curious), the box isn’t a good design.
