Sudoku Math Mini, tailored for iPhone/iPod screen sizes, features a suduko game style which infuses a math element into each puzzle. This Math style of Sudoku was invented by Tetsuya Miyamoto in 2004, which he used to teach his students mathematics. Sudoku Math takes Miyamotos game one step further by incorporating square roots calculations in each puzzle.

HOW TO PLAY:
The rules for Sudoku are simple. Fill each box with a number from 1 to X, where X is the grid size of the puzzle:
4x4 game: fill in with numbers from 1 to 4.
5x5 game: fill in with numbers from 1 to 5.
6x6 game: fill in with numbers from 1 to 6.
…and so on.
Each number can only be used once in any row or column. In the Math style, the grid is also divided into heavily outlined sections which contain a target number and a math operator. The numbers filled into these outlined sections must combine (in any order) to produce the target number using the indicated math operator.
Outlined sections that contain only one box will have a square root equation as the target. Fill in these boxes with the resulting square.
