Sudoku Party
SCORE: 83
I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming was given a digital download
code for Sudoku Party on the Nintendo 3DS. This puzzle video game with
one thousand puzzles can also be found on the Wii U. Since we have moved
over to the Switch we do not do much with the Wii U anymore. We mainly
use it to record videos of Wii games. The Wii U has essentially been
dead to us for some time now.
Back to Sudoku Party. Sudoku Party has the normal one player mode where
you solve the puzzle. There is also a party mode where you can compete
against others. In addition to all of that Sudoku Party has a
competitive mode. Sudoku Party is split between Easy, Medium, Hard and
Fiendish. It can take twenty minutes or more to solve the easy puzzles
in Sudoku Party. Not very hand held friendly. Puzzles can be saved and
picked up later though.
Sudoku Party has three trophies players can earn. The first is to solve
the puzzle. The second is to solve it in a certain amount of time (like
ten minutes), the third is to solve it without using hints. What are the
hints in Sudoku Party? The game can remove any mistakes you made in the
puzzle. This can be handy when you are stuck and do not realize you
messed something up.
The music in Sudoku Party contains an Eastern flair to it. The balloons
on the top screen let you know how many of a certain number are left to
place. This can be handy when you are trying to solve the puzzles. The
background music can be turned off, and Sudoku Party can be changed for
left handed input. Lightwood Games is so kind to diverse game play
styles.
Sudoku Party is challenging. Even the easy puzzles took me twice as long
at first. I did eventually learn some tricks and get a bit faster. I was
never quite fast enough for that second trophy. I earned the first and
last one quite a few times. I decided to ignore that second challenge
trophy because I care more about solving the puzzle. It is relaxing for
me to take my time. Sudoku Party does not push time limits on us, and I
appreciate that.
