Sudoku is kind of the same, in that the numerical values of the numbers doesn't come into play at all. You can replace the digits with fruits and the game plays the same.


I enjoyed this comment. Fruit emojis don’t sum well, so by your classification separate out the similar Kakuro or KUBOK16 from Sodoku, and with that, I have to drop a plug for my https://www.kakurokokoro.com/ in which “clues” are the column and row sums.


Except it’s harder to iterate over the numbers when they’re fruits. (Unless you have a list of nine fruits in your head you can rattle off.)
