Tried, but didn’t put the time into it. I’d love to be able to do some basic stuff because I get antsy and it’s a nice skill and looks cooler than fidget spinners and is great for self-defense. I do sudoku when not playing with yoyos. ---

You must be smarter than I am. Sudoku puzzles kick my back pocket. I started with thumb chucks because I wanted to strengthen my hands. I have arthritis in my thumbs. So far, all it has done is to make the pain worse. Playing with yoyos have been much better and easier on me. ---

It is about the same thing. From the looks of it, maybe the cords are a little bit longer than thumb chucks. I think the names have been changed to protect the innocent. ---

Oh, I LOVE sudoku! I start 6 at a time and work on all of them a little at a time. It’s a great brain exercise and I find very calming. It takes a little to get the hang of it and it’s helped me with problem solving in general. It has helped with critical thinking.
