  • Need to be able to win more hints!!

    I love this game—and it actually feels a bit like I’m using my brain, which makes me feel better about all the time I waste playing!

    But… every time I step up a level (I am currently stuck on Hard), I am in desperate need of hints before I improve. I don’t do battles, so I’ve amassed over 100 useless tickets. I NEED HINTS, though.

    I suggest allowing us to buy hints by watching ads all the time not just every now and then; giving us the choice between rewards of battle tickets or hints, or even selling packages of hints (though I would never do that).

    Meanwhile, I really am addicted! GREAT game!

  • Battle

    The Battle mode has the potential to be great, but has a couple of major issues. First is the ads: you get an ad before each match, but they are all different lengths. There’s been many times where I’ve finished my ad and my opponent had a shorter ad and placed 5-10 pieces before I could even see the board. The second issue is the matchmaking. I’m usually getting 3 times more wins than losses, because I’m getting put against people who seem to have never touched the game before. Despite these issues, I believe the battle mode has some great potential and hope that the devs see this feedback.

  • The Battles are great!

    Great twist on Sudoko. The battles add a great competitive aspect. My only issue is some of the advertisers will use a tiny “x” in the very corner of the screen that is impossible to X out of in order to play. It is really 1 advertiser. The only way I can close the ad is to end the game. It’s a big issue when it occurs in the battles. When that particular ad appears, it means I automatically lose the battle.

  • No ads available

    I got this app because I enjoy sudoku and had so much trouble with a previous app that I deleted it. Now I find that this app also contains way too many ads and the cost to remove them is totally insane. Another problem is when you choose to use a hint you must sit through another ad however you will more often get a message over and over that no ads are available and thus no hint. My frustration level has overloaded and I am going to delete this app.

  • Crashes Getting Battle Ticket

    I really like the game, but wish they would fix the bugs. Specifically, my iPad locks up 100% of the time when trying to collect a battle ticket on the 8th game won.
  • Annoying Music

    I have been playing Killer Sudoku daily for months. Suddenly there is annoying background music while playing and there is no way to turn it off. I can use the volume and turn it down to zero, but that also turns down the other sound effects. Please fix this quickly or I will be ending my subscription. (There also seems to be no way to contact the developer, hence the one-star review.)

  • Death by advertising

    I understand the need for ads. But these are INSANELY LONG!!! I can handle 10-15 seconds but 30-45 before and after games? I considered buying out of the ads, but I’m not paying $16 per year. This is not the only game I play so I can tell you it’s waaaaaay out of line. The 3 star rating is an average:

    5 stars for the game (it’s FABULOUS).
    0 stars for the highway robbery by ads.

  • Great game-Terrible ads

    Great game and I can wait through the ads to play again but I don’t understand how they get away with ads that are total lies. A powder you mix in water and drink twice a day and your fat will melt away? Really? They even show a video in reverse to show a dramatization of fat disappearing. Then there is the one that you can win thousands of $$ with videos from 8-10 years ago.

  • Too many (fake) ads and hangs

    This app is intentionally made to annoy the users into paying,lol. Too many ads that obviously look made up and fake and bordering on criminal and illegal activity/products. And ads from Black Friday sales, lol. The hangs are I think due to app downloading video ads that run seems like forever that cannot be skipped. Come on, have some class, remove the annoying ads, and your app will sell itself on its on merit. I would pay if the app didn’t show all the questionable and tasteless obviously made up fake ads.

  • Fun but glitchy

    I enjoy this game a lot, and I was psyched when the “battle” feature appeared yesterday, but I’m very frustrated by the fact that I open the game after being away from my device and find that I have “lost” several battles and my tickets for continue playing have been spent. I also appear to both lose AND win a battle now and then, and my statistics show both results recorded. Not sure how long I will stay with it under the circumstances, which is a bummer because I enjoy the game a lot when it’s working properly.
