Abstract
3D puzzles have been recognized as a popular type of computer games. The Sudoku is a popular puzzle game and has been attempted to extend into 3D Sudoku but not commercially successful yet. We analyzed that complicated 3D operations required in current 3D Sudoku applications largely discourage players. In this study, we proposed a simple interface for the 3D Sudoku that displays necessary information to solve the puzzle with a single mouse click. The experimental results show a significant improvement on the play speed over a current game application.
