Sudoku Gifts
Sudoku is a Japanese logic-based puzzle game that has, in recent years, taken the world by storm. Whether your loved one uses the game to relieve stress or just to pass the time, a Sudoku-themed gift can be your ticket into her good graces.

Puzzle Book
-
If your gift recipient plays a lot of Sudoku, consider giving her a thick book of puzzles with a range of difficulty levels. Some people play multiple games while traveling by plane or before they go to bed, in which case they probably complete a lot of puzzles on a weekly basis. Getting her a new puzzle book will give her more opportunities to play.
Electronic Sudoku
-
If your loved one plays a lot of Sudoku but complains about wasting paper or carrying around a book of puzzles, consider a handheld electronic Sudoku gaming device. These devices allow players to select their difficulty range and play hundreds, if not thousands, of Sudoku games at the touch of a button. The devices are also available in enlarged versions for those who have difficulty seeing small numbers or using small buttons. They're eminently portable and provide hours of entertainment without the bulk of a puzzle book.

Extreme Sudoku
-
For individuals who find even the most difficult Sudoku puzzles to be fairly simple, consider a gift of an extreme Sudoku puzzle book. These puzzle books include new and interesting divergences on the traditional rules of play. Some puzzles, for example, include rules that state that not only must rows and columns include numbers one through nine only once, but also that diagonals follow the same rules. Some puzzle books use symbols or letters, which add additional challenges for Sudoku lovers.
Sudoku Paraphernalia
-
You can also get gifts that a diehard Sudoku fan can wear---from hats to T-shirts. You can create your own on t-shirt websites or order pre-made Sudoku-related clothing items. Keep in mind that while some people may love Sudoku, they may not want to display their love to the world on a T-shirt. If that's the case, consider a Sudoku mousepad or coffee mug.
