I'm crafting a Sudoku variant and I'm torn on how difficult to make it.
I know different users prefer different levels of challenge.
With 17 givens, it's possible, but probably frustrating. (4 Star)
with just 1 additional given its still interesting, but significantly easier. (2-3 Star)
Obviously both versions have the same solution.
Is there a recommended way to publish two versions of the same puzzle into the database?
A) Publish the hard version and include a link to a hint: "Place a 5 in r3c8"
B) Include both versions on the same page, and allow the user to scroll down to the easy version if desired
C) Publish both puzzles separately, with different titles, but a shared solution
D) Something else.
How do other authors typically handle this on Logic Masters?
