TK-8250 Sudoku 5x5 Game
$10.00
The logic game that's taken the country by storm! Loosely translated to mean "all the numbers must remain unmarried," Sudoku was first published in 1979, caught on in Japan in the late 80s, and recently gained a huge international following. In our 5x5 version of the new cult classic play begins with several given numbers. Players must fill in the rest of the grid, but each row, column, and color-coded region must contain only one instance of each number. The objective is to fill every color-coded square in the grid with one of five tokens. Unlike the traditional Sudoku puzzles, our travel-ready magnetic version uses fewer game pieces and involves a shorter play time. Each of the 20 double-sided challenge cards is held in place on the game board by magnetic tokens, and various game patterns offer greater visual interest and variety. Now the whole family can get involved in this addictive game of pure logic.
Features: 4 levels of play, 40 challenges with solutions, 25 color and numbered magnetic tokens, self-contained travel and storage box.
Learning Skills: Deductive Reasoning, Problem Solving, Manipulative Development
Ages 8 to adult.
