Has To Be The Best
Having so many levels means that this app is suitable for any skill range, and that you can progressively move up the levels as you become more experienced. Combined with this, there is a fantastic tutorial, which can be referenced by a hint whenever stuck. As a result, my sudoku skills have improved immensely from using this app. Plus the shading of numbers and option for automatic pencil marks allows the user to concentrate on the solution without the headaches. Fantastic app.

Still the best
I've been playing sudoku with this app for about three years now and it's always been great. No updates that cause problems or take away from the game experience. I tried several apps back at the beginning and this one was exponentially better than the rest. I haven't looked lately because this app hasn't given me even one reason to look for something better. Try the free version then buy this to support this developer. He deserves it.
Edit: Now five years or so since I first tried then bought this app. Still the best! Still works, works fast, intuitive - everything I want. Thanks!

The Best Sudoku Game anywhere
This is the best of the many Sudoku apps, hands down! Why?
- flexibility: select square or number first, most apps are setup so that you select a square, then the number. This is backward from how I solve and constantly annoying.
- highlights all squares with that number or its pencil mark, a huge help in solving. You can also turn this off for more difficult play
- allows you to work easily between solved numbers & pencil marks
- excellent error check on both hard numbers and pencil checks.
- 10 levels of difficulty, for really stretching your play skills
- lessons to learn the basics of Sudoku and its more esoteric points
- the single best feature is the hints...not just giving you a cell, but showing you an area or number to examine for yourself. Hints include advanced techniques like X-wings, finned fish, pivots and bugs.
- wild card games that challenge or relax

Brilliant
Wonderful teaching guide. Lots of levels of difficulty. This app is far superior to any other & well worth the money
I'm a fan
Glad I switched. After using another soduko app for a while, I looked around again and found this one. With the "hints" and the "tutorials", I have discovered many other more advanced ways of solving the puzzles. I also like the customizable way to fill in the numbers. That is something that I did not know I wanted in a soduko app. Now I couldn't go back. Highly recommend.
*****updated...now, several years later this continues to be my go-to when I'm in a Sudoku mood. It stays updated and keeps up with new iOS versions. Great app

Easily the best
This is the complete package. It can take you from zero knowledge of Sudoku right through to the most advanced levels - assuming of course that your brain can cope with the logic!! The help articles, tutorials and guidance are first class. The board layout and pencil mark options are simple and clean. The hints are clever, encouraging you to examine an option but also offering to show you what to do next. It's a class app.

Best sudoku
Right level of functionality, good layout, doesn't overdo it, intuitive to use. Addictive
Used it for years -- still love it
While the many clever solving methods are impressive, I enjoy my simple minded self-taught methods. App works just great whatever way you want to go. My solving time is not very fast, I rarely use hints, and usually fall below 50% of others. But the one hint that I love is the undo until solvable hint. That way when
I make a goof and see I'm off track needing to put a number where it cannot go, it is great to just use the hint to go back to where things are ok. No more old-fashioned hours of tedious erasing or messy over-writing with a ball point.
PS Hints still teach this old dog new tricks!

Fantastic App
From one who has always been addicted to Sudoku - have found this App to be fun, challenging d never boring.... Thank you
Best Sudoku App in store!!!
I tried several Sudoku games and this has the best user interface, IMO. It let's you customize the play to how you prefer it, rather than forcing you to play the way the designer thinks you should.
There are many play levels, which allows one to improve on different techniques, as different techniques of solving are introduced at different levels.
I've been playing this game for years. I try other Sudoku apps, but always come back to this one!!
