Staffordshire, UK – Lightwood Games is excited to announce details of their latest puzzle game, Sudoku Party. It is available on the Nintendo eShop in North America today, and will follow in Europe and Australasia on March 23rd.
Sudoku Party contains 1,000 classic Sudoku puzzles. A fine collection of uniquely solvable, beautifully symmetrical puzzles, which will keep solo puzzlers occupied for hundreds of hours.
But it’s when you add a second player that this game really comes alive!
All 1,000 puzzles can be tackled in co-operative mode, allowing a second player to jump in and help solve the puzzle at any time.
The unique Party Mode, on the other hand, is a frantic battle to see who can think quickest! Two players work together to solve the same introductory-level puzzle, but at the same time compete to see who can control the largest number of squares.
Score a point for each square you complete. Once you have placed a correct answer, your opponent has just a few seconds to react and solve it too, otherwise they can no longer score that point!
On Wii U it is the only dedicated Sudoku game to take advantage of the large touchscreen on the Wii U GamePad to provide a really comfortable experience for deep thinkers. Button controls are also available, and the second player can connect any additional controller - a Wii Remote, Wii U Pro Controller or Classic Controller.
On Nintendo 3DS, two players can take part in both modes with only one copy of the game using Download Play, or you can take on the next available opponent in an online game.
The game’s puzzles are designed by Conceptis Ltd, the world’s leading supplier of logic puzzle content and a name that should be familiar to puzzle game aficionados.
"We've never seen anything like this", said Conceptis CEO Dave Green.
"Lightwood has found a brand new way to play Sudoku. They've taken our simplest puzzles, which were intended to be training levels for new players, and made them into a crazy online game that gets my pulse racing!”Lightwood has also partnered with Conceptis on the upcoming game, Pic-a-Pix Colour, a nonogram - or “picross” - game, solved using a colour palette for both Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.
