Sudoku·· Wiki

I love me some sudoku, and this app, in spite of the ads one must endure, is pretty perfect if you ask me. I especially like being able to pencil in options. I do this on paper sudoku and it always looks a ridiculous mess. I’d call myself a solid intermediate player and these puzzles offer up a good challenge.

I like the program and especially like the daily challenges but I can’t stand the amount of commercial interruptions and it’s especially bad that if every time you press pause you have to watch a commercial to start playing again.

Great app, more fun than on paper actually. It lets you highlight a number, let’s you know if you made an error, choose level of difficulty, put it down and come back to it later. I really enjoy these quick breaks in the day, and the absence of annoying interruptions.

Only thing I do not like is when u accidentally press wrong number it and know it....u can’t change it without it marking it as an error.

I really enjoy that the numbers I wrote with the “pencil” organize themselves so they are easy to distinguish. I also really like the erase button.

The one thing wrong with this out is there’s too much advertisement in it. The game itself is fine.

I love this app but I have a few ideas and concerns. Ever since I updated my app I can’t change difficulty levels. Please fix that! And once we’ve correctly placed a number in the location can you make it where it can’t be changed by accidentally selecting that square again. And once we’ve correctly placed a number in all 9 locations can you gray it out from the number line up please. That way we know it is already finished and again we aren’t accidentally selecting the wrong number for a location. Thanks!!!!

If you could make a way to remove them that would be awesome. I don’t care how much, (of course a reasonable price) I will pay. I can’t find any other sudoku game better than this one. I just don’t want the ads because they turn my music off :/

I’ve only ever had one other sudoku app which I will be downloading again after I post this review. Two suggestions for the developers: please add a night mode of some sort or allow for a different, somewhat night friendly look for the game. Also, please fix your expert mode to show that NO errors are allowed. Having “0/1” on the top of the screen makes me think, “oh, i have one mistake allowed. The second mistake ends my game.” Perhaps I’m the only person who interprets like this, i don’t know. I think it’s misleading because although I make a mistake, it ends my game right there and then. That doesn’t make sense to me given the “0/1.” Please edit that to reflect NO errors are allowed in expert mode. Thank you.

My preference is paper/pencil puzzles. I downloaded this to have something easier to keep me busy while waiting for my mother at medical appointments. I immediately turned the sound off so not to be disruptive to others, but when starting a new game the offensive music comes on with the ad that must be viewed for at least a few seconds. I play these games to relax, not to be competitive with other unseen people. There are two many stressors to keep this game from being fun. I don’t need a clock to race against, and would prefer that it could be toggled off. Plus, when a new game is launched, the clock starts and I lose seconds watching the ad before I can skip it. I don’t care how many mistakes I make, keep track if you must, but I would like the option to clear the board and start over like I do with paper/pencil. Inadvertent mistakes are too easy to do with an errant tap on the keyboard. I pay attention to whether it was a finger tap mistake, or a logic error. Too many logic errors I’d clear the puzzle and start over. Plus, when kicked out of a game, the offensive music starts again disrupting those around me. I don’t mind the ads, they are necessary when enjoying a free app, but sound off should mean sound off all the time. Let me enjoy myself playing the game without the sudoku police monitoring how I play.

I get it. It’s free, so there’s ads. But the way you do it is obnoxious. Every time I pick up the device and open the app, even if I’m still in the middle of a game? If I make a mistake, I have to watch an ad? Come on, seriously! Not keeping this on my device. I’d rather pay for something with no ads.

Developers have gotten too greedy with the very intrusive ads on these. Making you watch a stupid ad before you are allowed to correct a mistyped entry is ridiculous. I’ll stick to a more user friendly sudoku app.

The game itself is designed well. The problem is; 1st there is no option to purchase add removal and 2nd though adds are not their selves a problem, the fact that they are very aggressive and more importantly interrupt any steaming news I have running in the background, is. You can turn off the sound for the app, but the adds continue to interrupt any streaming news I have running in the background. I’ll hold on to the app for a while, not too long.., but I am not interested in having to close the game to restart news I have streaming in the background. Best solution charge for add removal. After that turn of the (mostly nonsense) sound in the adds. This app would have been rated far better were it not for having to close it and restart it to address the issue with sound...

In the very first puzzle I tried to complete, I accidentally tapped the wrong number, just once, received an error message about making too many mistakes and losing the game, and was given no opportunity to continue or try again. The puzzle I had been working on was just gone. Apparently one mistake is too many. That's not how you should "lose" in Sudoku. The challenge is to solve the puzzle, not to avoid accidentally touching the screen in the wrong spot, and not being allowed to complete a puzzle takes all of the fun out of it.
