Worlds Hardest Sudoku 9x9 for Ksudoku

Wife was going on about this puzzle so I decide to try it on Ksudoku.

It is suppose to have only one solution.

Copy code into text file and load it into Ksudoku.

That’s true of any properly constructed sudoku puzzle. If there’s more
than one solution, it’s not properly designed.

Didn’t load for me.

Oddly, loading it from the menu didn’t work, but loading it from the
command-line did work.

I wonder why it didn’t work?

Anyway for those that don’t know how to load it from the command line there is one other option, start a game and save it, then replace the values line in the xml text file of the saved game. You should be able to load the game into Sudoku without an issue this way.

<values>i__________hf____j_d____bi__g___b_f___j_e_______hf______c_h___e_____dgb_______i__</values>

I noticed that Ksudoku tends to be picky about spaces caused by copy and paste actions, so keep that in mind if you try either option.

It was kinda odd, because it didn’t work from the menu, but it did from
the command-line.
