Woodoku Block Puzzle

Woodoku Block Puzzle is a game that blends traditional block placement mechanics with Sudoku-inspired grid clearing. Players are given different shaped blocks to fit into a 9×9 grid, aiming to complete full rows, columns, or 3×3 sections to clear space and earn points. The challenge comes from strategically placing pieces to prevent the board from filling up while maximizing the number of cleared sections in each move.

Planning Moves to Avoid Dead Ends

Since the game does not allow rotating blocks, players must carefully plan their placements to ensure there is enough space for future pieces. As the board fills up, available options become limited, making it important to think ahead. Clearing multiple lines or sections in a single move provides higher scores and helps maintain an open board for new placements. The balance between short-term gains and long-term positioning is key to reaching higher scores.

Increasing Complexity with Limited Space

As the game progresses, the challenge increases with more complex block shapes appearing. The more efficiently a player manages space, the longer they can continue placing blocks before running out of moves. The combination of strategy, pattern recognition, and careful planning makes each session different, encouraging players to refine their approach and improve their scores over time.
