I love this puzzles. I play them very often. I am getting really good at them finally. I think that I have been doing them now for almost one year. I actually sat down last night with my six year old daughter and started teaching her how to play. We were using a kids soduko game with 6 different color animals. We played once and she caught on. It looks like we are on for another game tonight before bed.

I've never heard of this game before, so I do not think that it is that famous around here.

Completed Sudoku puzzles are a type of Latin square, with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. Leonhard Euler is sometimes cited as the source of the puzzle, based on his work with Latin squares[1].
The modern puzzle was invented by an American, Howard Garns, in 1979 and published by Dell Magazines under the name "Number Place"[2]. It became popular in Japan in 1986, when it was published by Nikoli and given the name Sudoku. It became an international hit in 2005.

I do not know if it is popular in my country, but I do not play it. I tried, but I have no patience to play it.

i do not play it daily, but its always fun to have around when you're bored and have nothing to do. its really a time killer, and it keeps your brain thinking which is a good thing. and i dont know if its popular in our country.. but its widely known i believe.
