Quote I haven't tried the Math Puzzles, but I do enjoy doing Logic Problems. Could pass on Sudoku though. Another letterboxer has clues for a box set up in the form of a Logic Problem (SpringChick, I think).


Yes, I think some of hers are immensely fun to read. I always loved the logic problems. Here is a good site that always has at least one logic puzzle. You should also take the time to explore other puzzles on the site--there are lots of fun time-wasters.

I have two mystery boxes planned. One I don't want to give away. But for the other, I am going to use one of those linguistic logic problems that you always see in Games Magazine. You know, where you have to figure out the grammar and then what the individual words mean and then apply that knowledge to actually solve the clues. Figuring out how to make the clues work right has been tough--but I'm still working on it when I have the opportunity. Look for Alien Logic in the next few weeks.

On the topic of soduko and other logic puzzles, anyone do Paint by Numbers? Not the ones where you actually use paint, but the logic puzzles which yield a picture if solved correctly.

I'm a Games Magazine junkie.

I love logic problems! But my all time favorite are the cryptoquotes! Luckily they have one everyday in our local newspaper.

This is my favorite Sudoku site...

http://sudoku.com.au/

When you complete the puzzle you get a photo as a reward. The photos are pretty amateur but it's fun to get a surprise at the end.

Yup, a couple of them using logic puzzles:

Summer Vacation Mystery
The Case of the Missing Salmon

I have a new box waiting to be planted using Sudoku Puzzle as part of the clues, but will probably wait for the snow to disappear before putting it out.

Fun Stuff!

I have been trying to figure out a Sudoku letterbox myself.

Awesome if you do it first!
