Figgett, publishing director of Su doku Selection, said: “The country
is going mad for Su doku so it’s only natural with our strong track
record in producing puzzle magazines we’re ahead of the market by
picking up on this trend and are ready to launch a quality dedicated
title as the craze becomes mainstream.”
