Solve the two overlapping code-doku puzzles. When you have completed the puzzle, the shaded squares will form a hidden message read left to right, then top to bottom. Each region contains eight different letters and one blank square. You will not be able to complete the puzzle using the sudoku rules alone. You will have to make choices that give a meaningful message.
