Boggle'd

Boggle is a word game designed by Allan Turoff and trademarked by Parker Brothers and Hasbro. Here we play a smaller version of the traditional game.

How to play
Search for words that can be constructed from the letters of sequentially adjacent squares, where "adjacent" squares are those horizontally, vertically or diagonally neighboring. Words must be at least three letters long, may include singular and plural (or other derived forms) separately, but may not use the same letter square more than once per word.

An example "TALE" is already done for you.

The original game has a time limit of 3 minutes and uses 4 X 4 squares. Here, your time limit is the next JM issue! Do write in your word list to the JM address given in the magazine and we'll print the ones with the most number of words. Don't forget to write in your name and address.

Rules

. Use the numbers from 1 to 6.
. Every row must have all the numbers from 1 to 6
. Every column must have all the numbers from 1 to 6
. Every sub-rectangle must have all the numbers from 1 to 6
. The central shaded square (in the medium puzzle) must have the numbers 1 to 4

(A sub-rectangle is the 2 X 3 rectangle; the 6 X 6 square is broken up into 6 such sub-rectangles.)

Use the numbers already filled in as hints to complete the grid. Send in your filled-in grid to us at the JM address given elsewhere in the magazine. Don't forget to write in your full name and address.

Each Sudoku puzzle has a unique solution. If you find the "EASY" Sudoku a walk-over, try the new improved "MEDIUM" challenge!
