Battle of Sudoku: A Multiplayer Sudoku Showdown!

Love Sudoku? Want to challenge friends? Battle of Sudoku is a multiplayer version where you compete against other players or teams. The goal remains the same: fill a 9x9 grid with digits so each row, column, and 3x3 subgrid contains all numbers from 1 to 9.

Before starting, choose a difficulty level (1-6, 1 being easiest, 6 hardest). This sets the initial numbers, which all players must solve simultaneously. Everyone starts with the identical puzzle.

Game Modes:

• Show Opponent's Correct Numbers: Each correct number placed is visible to all players. Only the first player to correctly place a number earns points.
• Hidden Correct Numbers: Players cannot see each other's correct numbers, allowing for multiple players to earn points for the same correct number.

Time-Outs: Incorrect numbers result in a time-out (configurable, default 30 seconds).

Scoring: Correct numbers earn points (higher difficulty levels award more points). Incorrect numbers deduct points (half the value of a correct number).

Winning: The game ends when the puzzle is solved. The player with the most points wins. If "Show Opponent's Correct Numbers" is disabled, the game ends when one player solves it, but this doesn't grant extra points; others can still win with fewer mistakes.

Team Play: Two teams compete. Join a team (1 or 2). At least two players per team are required. Points are added to the team's total score, and notes/colors are shared within the team, facilitating collaborative strategies.

Solving Tools:

• Pen Tool: Add notes (mini-numbers) to squares. Clicking a number already present removes it.
• Fill Mode: Change the background color of any square.
