Andrew Stuart trading as Syndicated Puzzles

I started as a puzzle solver with a Sudoku solver in 2005. This was picked up by the Daily Telegraph crossword compiler at the time and I was asked to develop Jigsaw Sudoku and Killer Sudoku puzzles. Sudoku happens to be a deep class of problem and the community and I are still working on the ‘unsolvables’ twenty years later. This is a free resource at www.SudokuWiki.org. Since then I’ve been an independent puzzle maker and have been published in various books and newspapers around the world. With Jeff Widderich I developed Str8ts (www.Str8ts.com), 1 to 25 and Letterlicious (www.letterlicious.com). I have over fifteen puzzles in my portfolio including word puzzles such as Codewords and Letterlogic. The UK market is dominated by a couple of large players so I’m still very much a cottage industry but I believe my puzzles are better than most for having logical strategies and proven solve paths, even if they are obscure at the hardest level. If you need something for your local newsletters or community magazines, print ready puzzles are available at www.syndicatedpuzzles.com
