  • Good game but now interferes with Audible

    I love doing brain games while I listen to my audiobook and fall asleep. I’ve been playing this game for the last 6 months with no issue. But lately this app keeps pausing my Audible app. Which ends up upsetting me and keeping me awake since I keep having to go back to audible to hit the play button. Since this is the only time I really play this game, I’ll have to switch to a different app until this gets fixed.

  • I was robbed.

    Playing the Auutumn challenge, had completed phases 1 & 2, and had 12 puzzles left to play on phase 3. While playing game 52/64 the screen froze on a Free Cell Solitaire ad. It wouldn’t move. Clock wouldn't wind down. It just sat there! So I exited, turned off my iPad and rebooted it. When I got back into Killer Sudoku it had wiped out the 52 completed games and set me up to play game 1/64. With only 1 day and 4 hours left in the challenge there is no way I will complete the level, thus ruining my completion score. I am very disappointed in the game. I had just downloaded the newest version of the game yesterday. So, I am not a happy player right now. F. Harless

  • Meh, and stop with the mid-game ads

    The game play isn’t half bad. I like that it won’t allow you to make an errant note. However, I do miss the Fast Pencil feature that their regular sudoku game features. I also find that it lacks compared to Easybrain’s version, as they will color the board by sum, which is very helpful.

    But my biggest complaint is that recently, out of nowhere, I’m getting Candy Crush ads in the middle of a game that cause the app to crash. And the killer sudoku doesn’t present enough features to pay for, as opposed to the regular sudoku subscription.

  • Use of AI and Too Many Ads

    I love playing killer sudoku and I love the features this app has come up with. Being able to write in the numbers with my Apple Pencil is great. But getting an ad halfway through a game is too much. I understand between games, but ads in the middle are ridiculous. This is annoying but not a deal breaker for me.

    What I really wrote this review for and the reason I rated 1 star was the use of AI. I don’t know how many times they have done this but I noticed in the recent Super Bowl challenge that the art was AI. I wont go into my personal views on this but I disapprove. Stealing art an monetizing off of it should be a crime.

  • SO MANY ADS

    I don’t think it’s always been this way, but recently there are soooo many ads. There is one before and after every single game. So you get an ad after you finish a game, and then as soon as you start another game there’s another ad, 2 in a row. Some of them are 30 seconds long and cannot be skipped. And now it’s a recurring payment to get rid of ads not even a one time payment? Super annoying especially when moving through games quickly.

  • I’ve lost all of my stats

    I’ve played and enjoyed this game for several years. Recently, a screen popped up with 3 different statements. I could not exit out of this screen and had no choice but to respond to one of the statements. The third statement read something like: I play killer sudoko, (this is what I checked). After that my level went back to number One and all of my stats were gone! I would like back what I have worked so hard to achieve! Thanks

  • Events and history

    I just don’t understand why aren’t you guys answering any of the most recent reviews. It looks like everyone is complaining about the same issue that with the game is losing our data. It’s really make me upset because you don’t have reviewers on here recently that’s complains about the game itself. I think we all enjoy the game because if we didn’t we wouldn’t be worried about the history but we have so much of it we want it back. You also have some us that lost all our hints that we had, the Independence Day event is gone, all of the daily challenge for the month is gone, I mean it literally makes us go to the very beginning and losing absolutely everything. This is so upsetting and how you are ignoring us makes it even worst.

  • Disappointed!!!

    I’ve played this for years and most of the ads are tolerable. But now you’re asking questions which your ludicrous as I am playing the game and I am sure your tracking records show that fact. Why ask if I’ve played sudoku… classic sudoku… killer sudoku… and NOT provide a way to exit to the game if I don’t want to answer stupid questions or possible invasion of privacy down the road just so I can play your game. I’ll check from time to time and if you persist with this course of action than you’ll get no ad revenue from me.

  • Hints disappeared

    I love this game, it’s a good challenge but I had watched soooo many ads to build up my HINTS and now they are gone? What happened to my game? It’s like it was over written! I have been playing for a few months now and not only are my hints gone but it shows that I have only played one game? A screen popped up that asked what best describes me
    I’ve never played sudoku
    I’ve only played classic sudoku
    I’ve played killer sudoku
    I was playing killer at the time and I had no choice but to pick one of those 3 choices. There was no exit button. So when I picked I’ve played killer sudoku it took me back to a game and erased all my past history?? WHY?? How can I get back to where I was before that happened?
