Introduction

Sudoku is a very popular puzzle which enjoys a big following. There are many variations of sudoku, one of which is 'wordoku.'

Wordoku is substantially similar to sudoku, only with letters instead of numbers. The rules for wordoku are therefore the same. See the rules below, in the "Wordoku Rules" section.

Wordoku Origin or Etymology

Wordoku's history is unknown. It is at least a mystery here; a not so exhaustive search was done to find the history of this word. But no information was found. The name wordoku probably came about simply because wordoku puzzles can make words or phrases.

Wordoku puzzles can use letters, numbers, or any other characters. You can get very creative if you want to, creating wordoku puzzles that use words, phrases, or combinations of words, characters and phrases.
