Sit and Solve Boggle Logic Puzzles
Author: Mark Zegarelli
Publisher: Sterling Publishing Company
ISBN: 9781402750502
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Since 1972, BOGGLE has been a family favorite, and this twist on the game provides fans of the wildly popular Sit & Solve� series with a heap of word-finding fun. Solvers are given just a few letters on a 4x4 BOGGLE board, as well as a list of words to find. Using ordinary BOGGLE rules (they can spell words by moving from letter to letter vertically, horizontally, or diagonally without using the same letter twice) they have to deduce the location of the remaining letters. The combination of logic and wordplay makes this a real treat. BOGGLE is a trademark of Hasbro and is used with permission. � 2007 Hasbro. All Rights Reserved.

Word Freak
Author: Stefan Fatsis
Publisher: HMH
ISBN: 0547524315
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
This “marvelously absorbing” book is “a walk on the wild side of words and ventures into the zone where language and mathematics intersect” (San Jose Mercury News). A former Wall Street Journal reporter and NPR regular, Stefan Fatsis recounts his remarkable rise through the ranks of elite Scrabble players while exploring the game’s strange, potent hold over them—and him. At least thirty million American homes have a Scrabble set—but the game’s most talented competitors inhabit a sphere far removed from the masses of “living room players.” Theirs is a surprisingly diverse subculture whose stars include a vitamin-popping standup comic; a former bank teller whose intestinal troubles earned him the nickname “G.I. Joel”; a burly, unemployed African American from Baltimore’s inner city; the three-time national champion who plays according to Zen principles; and the author himself, who over the course of the book is transformed from a curious reporter to a confirmed Scrabble nut. Fatsis begins by haunting the gritty corner of a Greenwich Village park where pickup Scrabble games can be found whenever weather permits. His curiosity soon morphs into compulsion, as he sets about memorizing thousands of obscure words and fills his evenings with solo Scrabble played on his living room floor. Before long he finds himself at tournaments, socializing—and competing—with Scrabble’s elite. But this book is about more than hardcore Scrabblers, for the game yields insights into realms as disparate as linguistics, psychology, and mathematics. Word Freak extends its reach even farther, pondering the light Scrabble throws on such notions as brilliance, memory, competition, failure, and hope. It is a geography of obsession that celebrates the uncanny powers locked in all of us, “a can’t-put-it-down narrative that dances between memoir and reportage” (Los Angeles Times). “Funny, thoughtful, character-rich, unchallengeably winning writing.” —The Atlantic Monthly This edition includes a new afterword by the author.

Color Sudoku
Author: Philip Riley
Publisher: Sterling Publishing Company
ISBN: 9781402747144
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Sudoku fans will welcome this bright new twist to the popular puzzles! Every one of these ingenious creations--from "Bold X" to "Rainbow Up"--makes colors and patterns part of the solving fun. And although each puzzle maintains the normal 9x9 grid and follows the basic rules of the game, every style adds an additional restriction to intensify the challenge. In "Worms," for example, swirly, squirmy shapes fill the grids; the numbers increase as you work your way from head to tail. "Even/Odd" features squares in two colors, depending on whether the number to fill it is even or odd. And in "Positional Board," no two of the red squares can be the same number. They're all lots of fun!
