I usually do these puzzles in Japanese newspapers..

Not really a "video game", but since I'm linking to a webpage you can play it on, this thread is close enough, yeah?

I've tried playing these a couple of times, but I still don't really understand it. http://www.conceptispuzzles.com (http://www.conceptispuzzles.com) has some more too. I mostly play Hashi, Battleships, Fill-a-pix.

Hashi is interesting!


With Slitherlink, you basically need to make 1 single looped line go past all the numbers..
A number has 4 sides, so the number "2" needs to have two sides filled etc..

I worked on some of these in a Sudoku book I picked up in Sweden. Pretty fun, though sometimes rage-inducing

Gonna print some of these out for when I'm in a bus or something :p
