BAARN, NETHERLANDS --
In less than 2 years time Sudoku has taken the number one position in the world of brain teasing puzzles and has become a global multimillion dollar business.
Based on the intriguing theme of magic squares, many variations of this seemingly simply exercise have been tried in the market. What has started as a casual puzzle to kill otherwise wasted time has now become a global sport with tournaments television shows and considerable sponsor interests.
The Dutch inventor Hans van Briemen studied what he calls "the beautiful isomorphism of magic squares and geometric shapes" and together with Lensoft International his company developed the 3D Sudoku-Ball(R) with a so called "closed Samurai Sudoku network grid."
The result is a new puzzle phenomenon that can now be played on the internet and is expected to keep players busy for many challenging and exciting hours.
Hans van Briemen: "what has begun as a unique idea has eventually cost us month of development and mathematical struggle, but we are glad with this first result. Initial feedback from our Beta testers is excellent"
Besides the web based version that can be played on any operating system that supports Java, the company is planning the production and marketing of real PCV Sudoku-Balls together with partners in Mexico and Europe.
