How to Play The SuDoKu Cube

The Acronym SuDoKu means "one of each, none repeated." (See History for further details). In this case we are using a SuDoKu of nine. That means we have 9 single digit numbers, one of each in a line or on a surface. The line may be vertical or horizontal; not diagonal or sideways. In order to make a line of nine digits on the SuDoKu Cube, you must use three faces or sides of the cube. Therefore, follow 3 numbers on the first side in a straight line to 3 numbers on the second side to 3 numbers on the third side - all in a straight line. (See diagram A). They must be 3 contiguous sides.

This can be done Vertically, and Horizontally. It cannot be done diagonally or sideways.

The Vertical Column SuDoKu

Nine single digit numbers, one of each, none repeated in any order, in a vertical Column on 3 contiguous sides of the SuDoKu Cube. There are 6 different Vertical SuDoKu puzzles in the SuDoKu Cube.

The Horizontal Row SuDoKu

Nine single digit numbers, one of each, none repeated in any order in a Horizontal row on 3 contiguous sides of the SuDoKu Cube. There are 6 different Horizontal SuDoKu puzzles in the SuDoKu Cube.

The Regional Side SuDoKu

Each side of your SuDoKu cube is also a Sudoku puzzle. Play one of each, none repeated of 9 single digit numbers to any and every side of the SuDoKu Cube. There are 6 different Regional Suduku puzzles on your SudoKu Cube.
