Community Insight:
It said no ads in the listing but it has loads of ads.
This game is a good therapy for the mind. Its fun.
We have lived this game for years. We just reset the packs and run thru them again once we get to the end. Our issue is after the ad runs, it will often hang and need to be killed and then restarted to go to the next game.
This game totally helps us relax and at the same time challenges us. We love how you can adjust the level, because we a, not so good at Sudoku ourselves.
This game is really fun but it is always freezing up and what we have to do to fix it is …. Double tap our home button to swipe out of all our apps and go back on to the game it is annoying.
Starts out in training mode and directions on changing games and features seem very unclear or non-intuitive.
We hate seeing animated ads on the screen while playing. Deleted this app immediately due to this.
Don't like how slow the numbers take to appear in boxes otherwise pretty fun game.
Even with the sound turned off this app takes over our sound. This means we can't listen to podcasts and play this game at the same time. We'd play a lot more if this was corrected.
We just started playing, the way to put the numbers in the squares is REALLY unnecessarily slow, it's annoying and is actually the reason we're not playing this game cuz it is takin more time and therefore we're not getting an accurate time because the game itself is slowing us down.
This game is together best soduko ever.
Good game. Kills a lot of down time.
This is the first time we ever played sudoku in our life this game made so easy for us we're already master in it download it you'll be addicted to it that's how much fun it is.
We could play this game all day every day.
Love the way you grouped the puzzles into more & more challenging levels. But, more than that the way you display digits to pick from (table not scroll) is handy. Our least favorite part is the size of numbers when we "pencil" some into a cell – they are a little small for our old eyes.
Great fun and keeps the mind active.
Good game lots of fun! Well worth the download.
Great game very challenging. Must have game. Thanks.
Good game, love playin some sudoku on our phone.
Lots of different levels. Love the pencil fxn.
Great way to keep the brain active.
We have only played the very first intro game so far but this version seems simple enough to play.
We like most of all the graduated levels of puzzles. This sudoku app is interesting because it is challenging, very little help, no undo or redo that some of the others have. What would be helpful would be separate pencil and number pads, and not covering the game board with the number pad(s) when playing, like some of the other apps.
It's our way of relaxing n feeding our Brain it's that cool :).
Everything here you need. We have no problems with crashes or freezes (after ~40 games). Only change we would suggest is that the number box not disappear when you hit 'clear.'.
Best sudoku we've found! Latest version has a couple of minor quirks but is faster than prior versions.
We Love this game it's so challenging it messes up our brain! We think it just really teach us to watch what we're doing.. ;).
We enjoy playing the game just not thrilled with the blocking of the game board with the selection key.
It isn't really free when u have to purchase the puzzles.
Had the app for several months. Latest release is buggy and causes the app to crash. Our in app purchased never downloaded correctly.
Just wonderful, classic gameplay for all skill levels.
Love this game. Been playing it for years.
We've had this app for almost a year. Love it always fun and challenging! Hope the update doesn't change things.
These games are challenging and fun. However, the latest version no longer automatically highlights the selected pencil marks so you can easily deselect the marks you no longer want. It's frustrating.
Might be fun but every time you complete a game, click on a menu option the game closes… Useless.
You can do easy or hard levels, and also get to see your time and score.
Only had it for a few hours but seems really friendly and easy to use and unlock things.
This is really fun different shapes of boxes and stuff too.
Good for enterteinment of children.
We had to travel 12 hours and this game kept our mind active while we went to California for a few weeks :).
This is the best game we have ever played.
Awesome game and endless hrs of fun.
Like the pencil marks, the assist, the redo. Overall dies the trick.
Just tried it for the first time and enjoying so far.
A lot of fun and very challenging.
We enjoy playing on this app. Good job.
This is a great game and it makes you use your mind and helps you focus!!!!!!!!!! :) <3.
We had been wanting to learn to play and this package made it easy to start. Some problems with freezing though.
Our brain is not so numb when we play.
