## What is Sudoku Party (multiplayer/solo puzzles)?

Add a brand new dimension to a classic puzzle!  Party Play puts you head to head against an online opponent in a race to see who can think the quickest.  Solo Play features three new puzzles to solve every day, and the slickest interface on any mobile device.

You've never played sudoku like this before.  Two players, one puzzle.  Solve a square and your opponent has only seconds to respond or the point is yours.  When your opponent makes a move, you have to match it quickly or lose the square for good.  Can you keep up?  Or will you choose a different path, hoping to lock in more squares simply by thinking faster?

Sudoku Party features hundreds of puzzles designed by Conceptis, the world's leading creator of logic puzzles.  Each day we bring you three new, uniquely solvable, beautifully symmetrical puzzles, graded in three difficulty levels.

Daily puzzles are completely free to play.  You can unlock access to the full library (more than 300 puzzles and growing!) with a single in-app purchase.

Game features:

- Unique online play puts a new twist on the classic game
- Traditional solo play with 3 new free puzzles every day - easy, medium and hard.
- Challenge a friend or find the next available online game in seconds
- Pencil marks - with option to auto-fill or automatically update 
- Choose whether you're told about errors, conflicts or given no help at all.
- Track your progress using Game Center Leaderboards and Achievements
- Brag about your victories on Facebook and Twitter
- Universal binary for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch
