Two families of puzzles
Grid puzzles such as sudoku, Binero, Pixelo or Bouclo are solved by deduction: each filled cell follows from the previous ones. Code games such as Decrypto, Mindo or Ondulo call for another kind of logic: choosing the try that tells you the most.
Where to start?
Sudolito, a 6×6 sudoku, is the ideal way in: sudoku rules on a shorter grid. Then come Binero and Pixelo, followed by Sudoko's 9×9 sudoku, Bouclo and Ondulo for longer challenges.
A break of a few minutes
Allow from two minutes for a Decrypto code to a dozen for a hard 9×9 sudoku. Grids change at midnight and play on a phone or a computer.
