Suzaku<br />

Thomas George Thomas<br />

Suzaku (from Japanese sousaku: search) is a compound puzzle. The first<br />

step is to solve it as a traditional sudoku puzzle, using letters instead of numbers.<br />

The second step is to search for words in the solved sudoku. Start from<br />

any letter, moving up, down, forward, backward or diagonally in any direction,<br />

changing direction as needed without reusing the same square for a word.<br />

Although there are nine letters in this puzzle, words can be longer if you can<br />

find them. (There is a hint for this puzzle on page 21.) For extra credit, score<br />

the words using their associated number values to try to find the highest word<br />

points.<br />
