BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The embodiments herein generally relates to a board games. The embodiments herein particularly relates to Sudoku gaming board and more particularly relates to gaming parts associated with the Sudoku gaming board.

2. Description of the Related Art

The use of Sudoku puzzles is known in the prior art. To solve Sudoku puzzles, it is essential for the player to keep an accurate list of potential numbers, for each empty square. Sudoku puzzles are widely available in printed form, including newspapers, magazines, and books. However, they are often printed as small grids, which make them difficult to play. Therefore, it is desirable to play Sudoku on a larger format. Recently, Sudoku board games have appeared in the art, consisting of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations.

Several Sudoku board games in the related art consist of an erasable playing board which provides dry erase markers for writing candidate numbers or dots in the squares. The drawback of such method is that it is difficult to erase candidate numbers or dots without erasing adjacent numbers or dots. Also the process of dry erasing creates an unwanted dust. The player should also write numerals in correct position to avoid confusion. Yet in another scheme Sudoku board games are provided with small game pieces with numerals printed on them for keeping track of the players. The quantities of small game pieces provided by these games are usually nine which is insufficient to keep track of all the players. Another drawback is that the numerals are printed only on one side of the small game pieces, making them difficult to spot in a pile, especially if they are turned upside down.

Moreover, our world is constructed based on perception of one's own senses. Further any kind of disability and limitation of perception of human senses will confine the scope of our consciousness and awareness. In light of foregoing discussion there exists a need to provide a Sudoku gaming board which keeps brain of an individual active. Also there exists a need to provide a Sudoku gaming board desirable to play Sudoku on a larger format by an individual. Further, there exists a need to provide Sudoku gaming parts which increases capacity of auditory memory, auditory sensitivity and auditory sequence among individuals.

The abovementioned shortcomings, disadvantages and problems are addressed herein and which will be understood by reading and studying the following specification.
