"Tetsuya Nishio is the undisputed grand 'puzzle master' of Sudoku: a bespectacled fiend from the darkest suburbs of Tokyo who spends his every waking hour devising abominable new ways to torture our brain cells. His only weapon is logic, but, in his own words, 'it is a knife that kills.' His commitment to deviousness is absolute." The Times (U.K.) "Tetsuya Nishio has one of the world's most creative puzzle-making minds. I'm a big fan." -- Will Shortz, Crossword Editor, New York Times; Puzzlemaster, NPR., "Tetsuya Nishio is the undisputed grand 'puzzle master' of Sudoku: a bespectacled fiend from the darkest suburbs of Tokyo who spends his every waking hour devising abominable new ways to torture our brain cells.

Synopsis
O'Ekaki is the new Sudoku which challenges puzzlers on many levels as elaborate pictures emerge from the grid format games. To add to this intrigue, each puzzle's title is an amusing hint towards the picture that will finally emerge. Simple instructions are included in the front of the book to get new players started, along with some useful tips., Like Sudoku, O'Ekaki provides an entertaining test of one's logic, using a grid of boxes as its playing field. But rather than leaving the player with nothing more than a bunch of numbers, O'Ekaki ends with a flourish: an interesting piece of art that evolves as boxes are darkened until the puzzle is successfully completed. It's a puzzle that utilizes both sides of a person's brain And each puzzle's title is an amusing clue to the picture that will finally emerge. Simple instructions are included at the front of the book to get one started along with some useful tips. The puzzles challenge on several levels, from one pencil--beginner--to five pencils--expert--all resulting in a sometimes quite elaborate picture. Many of the O'Ekaki puzzles in O'Ekaki Heaven have a spiritual theme to their outcomes. Still, don't be fooled; some of the more difficult puzzles can be downright devilish, O'Ekaki is the new Sudoku which challenges on many levels as pictures emerge from the grid format games.

A very good value for the price. Book was shipped sepeartely from the main package (4 books total) which caused some confusion when receiving them, but I figured it out. 2 tracking numbers actually used (2 packages), but only one was listed.

Basic level one Spanish textbook which touches on culture as well as grammar and vocabulary. Item was shipped in thin plastic envelope and could've used better packing, but was not damaged during delivery. Would use this seller again.
- _***9 (71)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBooks are just as shown in the pictures. Though a bit dirtier than expected, the price was right. Since the seller gave the package, which was well packed, directly to USPS, instead of an intermediate carrier, it arrived very quickly. I would buy from this seller again.
