Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We like this version of Sudoku better than any others we have downloaded. Easy to use, and challenging enough to keep our interest. Relaxing.
We are really old to play this game. Do not like time test. But it one a few fair game so Like it.
We love this app. We would like for it to fill the full screen since we are older and our vision is not what it used to be. Otherwise, it is perfect.
Great game to play anywhere, anytime.
Great app, but please increase the touch area for selecting a number. When moving fast, we select a number and it doesn't get it if we're not exactly in the center of the square. So frustrating.
This is our favorite Sudoku interface.
Not only is this game addictive it's got a great look! Have spent many hours playing each level gets harder and makes for a great challenge.
This program has four levels of difficulty. It takes us 3-4 minutes to solve Easy to about 30-40 minutes to solve Insane. Great app, no bugs, nice "weathered" motif.
App is smooth and easy to play.
We like this sudoku better than others we've used. The graphics around the playing table are amusing and do not distract. Our only complaint is the placement of the two text buttons on the lower left. We are left-handed and the side of our hand brushes over them and changes to another screen. This happens a lot, and is annoying. Otherwise the app is good. The "hard" level is our favorite.
Been using it for years. Must have saved a forest of paper by now.
When we try to load up an "insane" sudoku, the template comes up empty. How do we fix this.
Easy to play and customize to your likes. We like having options to different games.
We love this app! Just like doing it from a book but much better.
Great game, four levels of play give a good range from which to choose.
We love the look and how it plays.
This app has a clean interface and makes sudoku a pleasure even for someone like us who was not interested in the game. In paper form we found sudoku to be tedious. But we really enjoy this iPad version. We like being able to choose the level of difficulty and the ability to replicate games we see in newspapers and magazines. We have had no issues with the operation of the game.
This game is fantastic. Never had a glitch with it and we play it every day.
We like the set your own game feature so we can play the newspaper games with other people. A good basic game that works all the time.
Like sudoku? Get this app. Done and done.
Best sudoku game on the market hands down. U will not be disappointed.
We looked for a long time to find a game of Sudoku that we really enjoyed playing. This one is easy to read and it is not overly illustrated. Sometimes we think it may help the player a little bit too much. Nevertheless, we highly recommend this game of Sudoku.
Love the app. Challenges any level player. Nice graphics. Easy to use. Highly recommend.
No glitches in the software. We like the backgrounds, the ratings for the different levels of difficulty seem right. Best Sudoku app we have played.
This is a very nice, visually appealing soduku game. We play for relaxation and do not care for competition or variety of types of soduko so this fits us perfectly. The harder levels are challenging enough to keep you interested. If you are looking for competition or varieties this may not be for you, but otherwise it fits the bill.
Pretty good overall. It could have used a bluetooth keyboard for entering numbers. It could also have a better method for marking. The puzzles are challenging and solvable. Insane requires marking, but the various levels lets you decide if you want to take the time to mark or not.
Love this app. Finally got us into Sudoku with the number scribble capability. So addicting we want to jump into this all the time. Can't wait to get to unlock more challenging puzzles.
We enjoy sudoku plenty already. This user interface is very attractive. App works well. Keep up the good work.
Will make you think which is really good for older people.
Easy to use and the designing your own is a nice addition.
We just downloaded this app and immediately began playing with no instructions. Very user friendly.
Loved Sudoku before and now this app lets us take it anywhere. Great screen and easy controls.
Beautiful graphics set this version of Sudoku apart, we quite like the unusual and artsy graphic interface. Easy to find your way around, and very addictive. Timer clock can be turned on or off for competitive or relaxing play. We find the modern lettering easier to read. Would like to see an update include some kind of grayling out of letters that are fulfilled from the selection board.
For $.99 it's a fun app! Feels just like you're using paper if you use the old-style font. We are having a blast with our new Sudoku app for ipad.
We love this app. It's nice and simple to look at and to use.
Awesome graphics. Awesome game. Awesome app. Can't think of a thing bad to say. (Not a fan of the "HD" symbol on the icon screen, but how else do we know the difference when purchasing? And we're rating based on the content, not the icon). Awesome.
Our favorite app, also our first one.
We have been looking for a challenging sudoku app for the iPad, but have had nothing but disappointment. This one is the total package! We love that there are no auto-erase & auto-fill shortcuts. We thought we missed those at first, but our solve rates have increased with better reasoning on our part. Love that the puzzles are correctly written – no need to guess on the higher levels.
Great design. Easy on the eyes. Total functionality. Endless variations. Full spectrum of skill levels. Why get anything else.
Updated regularly to add new challenges. Different levels to allow all ages to play. Fun and interesting.
Excellent app for working sudoku. It lets us use the same solving strategy we use with pencil & paper. The mechanics of using the app are simple & convenient. We like the graphic design.
This makes working a difficult puzzle a dream, keeping possible options clearly marked & easily deleted. One suggestion would be an option to color code these notes? That would make it a "6".
Our wife has been an enthusiastic paper-and-pencil sudoku player for years, but all the scratching out seemed so messy and confusing that the game didn't appeal to us. The CrowdCaf implementation of sudoku removed this barrier to our enjoyment of the game, and for the past two days we've had a lot of fun solving easy, medium, and hard sudokus. Being able to annotate each cell in the grid with potentially correct numbers and to erase those numbers step by step while solving the sudoku eliminates the mess and confusion that turned us off. Great job, guys.
This is a great app and a great game! Love it.
We really liked this game. We love sudoku and this one is easy to use.
Amazing game at an amazing price. Great format.
Great implementation of a great game.
We usually never do these but we like this version so much we wanted to let people know. We rely a lot on reviews ourselves so we wanted others to know this is worth the down load. OL.
We give this game 5stars ,love playing. We love doing Sudoku,help relax the mind. We do have books and play the games in the new paper everyday. This game beat all.
This is the best sudoku app we've seen. Similar to paper, but better.
