Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 241

This being a prime week kind of snuck up on me, so you’re going to have to assemble the prime bonus puzzle yourself.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 240

See you all next summer in Ottawa!

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 239

Scheduling this in advance. If everything went as planned, I’m currently in [undisclosed European city] recovering after a fantastic weekend!

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 238

I don’t think I’ve mentioned that I’m going to be speaking at SudokuCon. But don’t let that discourage you from going!

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 237

Zipper lines continue to ease their way into the roster of “standard” constraints.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 236

This Sunday, on the SudokuCon Twitch channel: the Setter Spotlight Series returns, featuring Marty Sears!

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 235

Bet you thought I forgot about given digits…

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 234

It occurs to me belatedly that it might have been nice to do something World Cup-themed, but, ironically, I’ve been too distracted by the World Cup.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 233

One of the fun things about the prime bonus puzzles is that (I like to assume) they’re always a surprise. Like, did you know off the top of your head that 233 is prime? I certainly didn’t.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 232

This week: the 10/10 difficulty rating makes a rare appearance.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 231

I don’t recall exactly why I chose to name a puzzle after the fundamental rule of improv comedy, but I *think* my reasons were more positive than negative.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 230

This feels like another slate where there’ll be quibbling about the difficulty ratings. Especially with the third puzzle. And the second one. And both bonus puzzles.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 229

I’ve never had an actual choco banana, but if they’re anything like the puzzle genre, probably pretty tasty.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 228

Be aware: the fog puzzle does NOT say “all clues are standard.”

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 227

Featuring puzzles called Music Box, Carousel, and Turntable, which almost seem like they were put together to fit a theme of some kind. I assure you, they weren’t.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 226

To all the new subscribers who signed up after last week’s volume, welcome! Have some more puzzles…

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 225

The multiples of 45 are my favorite posts of the year, so it’s nice that they actually come along every ten months or so.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 224

Starting to feel like I’m getting a little *too* generous with given digits, tbh.

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 223

Closing in on another multiple of 45...

Artisanal Sudoku, Volume 222

Feels like I should’ve found a way to make this one 2-themed. Well, roughly 11% of the digits in the puzzles are 2, so there’s that.
