What is Logic9 ?
Logic9 is a version of the popular puzzle, Sudoku, which is a craze around the world.

It is created by our trainer,
Mr Tan Kin Lian. The game has varying levels of mastery. Apart from using numbers, the game can be played with pictures and colours.

The puzzle contains a total of 81 squares arranged in a 9 X 9 grid.You have to fill in the blanks with the numbers 1 to 9, so that there is no repetition in any row, column or box (3X3 squares). The sequence of numbers is random.
