Web Sudoku Puzzle Game

Open Source Love

Welcome to my Sudoku puzzle game! - An interactive web Sudoku puzzle game developed in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Live Demo

๐Ÿ”— https://huaminghuangtw.github.io/Web-Sudoku-Puzzle-Game/


Motivation

Since I first studied parallel programming, I developed a personal side project that aims to solve large Sudoku puzzles as efficiently as possible by means of various parallelization techniques and solving algorithms. The main focus/goal of this project, however, is not only to make an interactive Sudoku puzzle game that the user can play around with, but also to hone my web development/design skills. Based on RedFlyer Coding's tutorial video on YouTube, I've added several widgets and features/functionalities in the webpage which I hope you will enjoy and have fun!๐Ÿ˜Š


Description

Sudoku is one of the most popular puzzle games of all time. The objective of Sudoku is to fill a 9-by-9 grid with digits from 1 to 9 such that each column, row, and box (or called "subgrid", "region", "block") contain every number in the set {1, ... , 9} exactly once.

This web application features generating and solving standard 9-by-9 Sudoku puzzles of different difficulty levels (i.e., easy, medium, and hard). For the Sudoku generating algorithm, please refer to [1]. The backtracking technique [2] is implemented as the solving algorithm here.


Test cases

A collection of test grids of various difficulty levels are present in the Test_Cases directory. These text files are used for the initial Sudoku boards of respective difficulty levels. When the user clicks the "Refresh puzzle" button, random Sudoku boards are subsequently generated via the approach proposed by Rob McGuir [1].
