But there is no undo or erase function if you make a mistake. ### 4/5 — Diabolical puzzles not always solvable *2026-08-28* So I got into Sudoku and the easy up to Evil levels are all solvable. I got to the point where I was solving them all and the only way to challenge myself was to start timing my solves. The other was the Diabolical level. Some of the puzzles can be solved and some cannot. To check I wasn’t insane I logged and screenshot several attempts at the same puzzle using both manual and the recompute option, as well as a range of strategies, to control the variables. I found at least 3 out of the 18 I played were not possible. So will look for another App. But up to that point I loved learning sudoku on this app ### 3/5 — Why are there so many ads? *2026-08-24, version 1.2.7* The ads are unbearable. They are long and multiple in between games. No way to opt out or pay to avoid ads. ### 3/5 — Long ads *2026-08-23* Long advertisements ### 4/5 — Pretty good but adverts freeze the game *2026-08-14* The game works well, but adverts can’t be watched and gone past, they just freeze the game, you have to close the game and restart it every time a n advert plays ### 3/5 — It’s is good for kids *2026-07-22, version 1.2.7* I would say if your a kid like 12 and under you should go on easy and any other age do mediums land hards ### 5/5 — Beautifully designed for phone *2026-07-13, version 1.2.7* This is so comfortable to play on my phone. The designers made it easy to play ### 5/5 — YOU HAVE TO GET *2026-07-06, version 1.2.7* You have to get this it’s the best game I have spent hours on this game on accident this is what you should do I am like I should spend 20 minutes on this game spending 20 hours you have to get this game ### 5/5 — Problem with the game, won’t launch properly *2026-06-28* The game is great, however game is failing to get past the startup screen without crashing. Currently unplayable ### 4/5 — Yo mama *2026-06-28, version 1.2.7* It was dingy ### 5/5 — Great games! *2026-06-27* Nice layout and music continue the good work ### 5/5 — Very good *2026-06-16, version 1.2.7* Very good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Music is on despite settings *2026-09-06, version 1.2.8* When the ads come between sets, it will not stay silent. It opens up at the most annoying volume. I just want a a game that has not gimmicks and will not ask me to spend money. It is ridiculous how awful these apps allow the ads to be. ### 1/5 — Ad on this Sudoku *2026-08-20, version 1.2.7* Completed a game & as usual went to an ad. The ad page was a white blank page with “ click to continue” in upper corner. This opened to a pornograhic site. I play game to exercise brain, not porn. ### 1/5 — too many ads *2026-08-18, version 1.2.7* really enjoyed this app but now it’s one ad after another and i cannot click through and play how i like, very disappointed ### 1/5 — Good but… *2026-08-14, version 1.2.7* I ended up deleting this app due to getting adverts that claimed y phone was a security risk, it’s not. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-12, version 1.2.7* Too many ads - app makes you watch an ad before each new game starts ### 1/5 — Spam and scam *2026-07-28, version 1.2.7* You should avoid this program like the black plague. Apart from all the adverts, there are also dishonest flags popping up that your iPhone has been infected with viruses. ### 1/5 — Don't buy *2026-07-09, version 1.2.7* Has naked people in ads. ### 1/5 — Ads freeze game continually *2026-07-06, version 1.2.7* Same ads keep freezing game every play. Done with this nonsense! ### 1/5 — The add site *2026-05-10, version 1.2.7* There is nothing but adds for other games on this site. It is a waste of time ### 1/5 — Was good, now it sucks *2026-04-21, version 1.2.7* Ads have leveled up to the point that this game is unplayable. This used to be fun 100%, but now it’s the same fun only 10% of the time, when you finally get to play because you will have to wait through ads in which there is no escape. So, you just shut it off and walk away. Ads turned it into Unplayable Garbage! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sweet *2026-08-25, version 1.2.7* Keeps my mind working…. ### 5/5 — Nice one *2026-08-23* Initial experience very good. No problem with advertisement breaks. ### 5/5 — Cool game *2026-08-17, version 1.2.7* Love this game! Easy to play ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-10, version 1.2.7* A lot of fun. Happy I don’t get it cut off after 3 mistakes ### 5/5 — Challenging *2026-07-30, version 1.2.7* Fun, challenging ### 5/5 — Reklamsız *2026-07-29, version 1.2.7* Kesintisiz reklamsız oyun olması çok keyifli 😊 ### 5/5 — Do not consent *2026-07-24* If you look at all those you are consenting to, you can be sure you will be inundated with constant bombardment of ads and rubbish, better off deleting games or anything else at that matter thag asks for consent, just look at how many vendors you are consenting to? Trust me I’ve done this, if you were to scroll to the bottom after you’ve turned off these vendors, then click the vendors choice at the bottom, then see how many more you need to switch off, they only want your details, just delete and block these games, I’ve been playing these for years, and now they’ve all done a huge update just to draw you into sharing your details. BLOCK. 🤬🤬 ### 5/5 — First full game *2026-07-21, version 1.2.7* Enjoyed the first time full grid Sudoko game. As it gets more difficult the learning experience now will help. Keeps this auld fellas brain “ engaged”. Ta !! ### 5/5 — Heading into retirement lol *2026-07-19, version 1.2.7* An old friend of mine recommended this to me to help keep my mind sharp. It definitely makes you think and it’s fun! My new goto!!!!! ### 5/5 — Soduku *2026-07-18, version 1.2.7* Hate the add but really good love it and pls make an extremely level thanks --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
