### 2/5 — HOT

*2026-03-15, version 920*

Well made app I would say, but my MacBook m5 air got so dang got that I thought my device was messed up. I like to think my device is just fine, so app is the problem.

### 2/5 — Errors

*2025-03-12, version 920*

Two games had wrong numbers in boxes - couldn't add the missing number!

### 2/5 — intrusive

*2024-09-07, version 920*

Everytime a game ended it messed with my email.

### 1/5 — Alto uso de CPU

*2023-06-07*

Meu macbook chegou a 95º rodando apenas o jogo pois a CPU ficou constantemente em 100% de uso.

### 1/5 — Strange pop-up link

*2023-05-23, version 920*

After playing the game,  a page opened wanting me to open a link.  I deleted the game from my computer.

### 2/5 — 발열 너무 심함

*2023-05-06*

몇 분 안했는데 개뜨거워짐

### 1/5 — Wants to send mail

*2023-04-06, version 920*

Upon completion of the first game, mail popped open with a draft and some text about the game. Creepy. Uninstall.

### 1/5 — Läuft nicht

*2023-02-18*

Läuft auf meinem Mac Book Pro OS Mojave nicht

### 3/5 — No help feature

*2023-01-22, version 920*

I would prefer it had a good help feature instead of having to wait till you realize you made an incorrect choice!

### 1/5 — High CPU Usage

*2022-12-01, version 920*

Besides a lack of explanation of the colors and other screen activity, this app constantly runs my CPU at over 60% causing the fans to come on and my keyoard to get hot.  This occurs even when when I'm just staring at the numbers and there's no game activity.

It was so bad that I had to uninstall this program.

I read their privacy policy and while they say they don't collect any indentifable info from you, they use 3rd party services that may be collecting your identifable  information.  It feels like there's a free-for-all going on inside my macbook.

### 1/5 — developer cannot be verified

*2022-09-29, version 120*

When I start the app I am presented with a message: “libgdx64.dylib cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware."

MacOS version 12.6 (21G115) on a Mac mini (M1, 2020) Chip Apple M1.

App deleted.

### 1/5 — Does not run on Big Sur

*2022-05-31, version 120*

App is not correctly signed. Developer not on the ball, but I reckon this is something the App Store itself should have been able to at least identify. Poor show.

### 1/5 — Why is this on the App Store?

*2022-04-02, version 120*

Downloaded this from the App Store. Tried to open it, got errors that the files could not be verified, so I could not open it. Nothing I did worked. Finally had to delete it.

### 2/5 — Numpad Keys

*2022-01-07, version 120*

Slightly annoying that the numpad keys don't work... Presumably the developer only has a MacBook...

### 1/5 — Scammy, desperate methods

*2026-05-11, version 920*

This app opened an email to go to them that was actually just a popup to advertise their paid version. That is terrible. App quality doesn’t matter after that, that’s too obtrusive

### 1/5 — ошибки !!!

*2026-02-19*

Я даже не поверил. 2 раза подряд комбинация с ошибками. 
Жалко скрин нельзя приложить. 
Это какой то капец. ((((

### 1/5 — Won’t run - MacOS 26

*2025-12-02, version 920*

App opened initially, then I grabbed the edge of the app window to resize it. It almost tried to resize but disappeared. Now it won’t open at all.

### 1/5 — bad

*2025-06-29*

too bad

### 1/5 — SPAM GAME

*2025-02-01, version 920*

SPAM GAME.  Makes an email to send out to others to spread the game.  Thankfully it can’t auto send.

### 1/5 — Kein Up-Grade un trotzdem kassiert?

*2024-09-01*

Bei dem angeblichen Upgrade ist mein Mac-Book abgestürzt und es gab kein Upgrade, sondern beim Start des Sudoku wird weiterhin nach einem Upgrade geworben. Trotzdem wurde das Geld kassiert. D.h. ich habe eine Rechnung vom Apple Store ohne Upgrade erhalten. Wie bekomme ich mein Geld zurück?

### 1/5 — Best interface, worst performance

*2024-03-08*

This game has the best Sudoku interface, with visual indications that help the player and keyboard navigation.
However it gets 100% cpu for no apparent reason. I suspect it may be using the user's CPU for other purposes.

### 1/5 — Scam game, do NOT download!

*2024-01-18, version 920*

Immediately as you load in, it asks you to turn on notifications and buy their premium version. Then, once you finish a puzzle, it tries to force an email from your Apple account to everyone in your contact list. On top of that, it then creates twice as many pop-ups asking you to buy the premium version. Do not install this app!

### 1/5 — М1 про

*2023-10-16*

Очень очень сильно нагревает ноутбук, и также очень сильно нагружает проц

### 1/5 — update! update! update! update!

*2023-07-19, version 920*

every time asking you to update

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Mind enhancer

*2024-02-10, version 920*

Still a novice but I love this app. Like that it is a simple colour.

### 5/5 — GOOD APLICATION

*2023-08-27, version 920*

Really good.

### 5/5 — Does what I want it to

*2020-07-12, version 120*

I had a great 32 bit sudoku game, but Catalina ate it. This one is different, but once I got used it it, it's fine.

### 5/5 — Such a relaxing game

*2019-01-08, version 120*

There are no flashy lights or excessive colours, so the game has great simplicity and is a great time killer. It also porvides a great challenge, because I never knew before that I had to imporove in medium sudokus. I am very satisfied with this app, and I hope many more people like me get addicted to it.

### 5/5 — A great Sudoku game for Mac IOS

*2018-06-03, version 65*

Very enjoyable sudoku game. Puzzle configurations are fare and not impossible to play.

### 4/5 — Good not great yet

*2024-02-21, version 920*

I like it when an incorrect number shows up in red so I don't waste my time filling in every square only to find that there's an error.

### 4/5 — Macht für mich was es soll!

*2019-05-10*

allein die Auflösung ist zu grob. Ansonsten genau so wie ich seit langem ein Sudoko gesucht hatte. Marker setzen und Hilfen bei der Übersicht.

### 3/5 — м2

*2024-03-28*

Сначала не поверила, установила - действительно, очень греет ноутбук

### 3/5 — so-so

*2023-08-26, version 920*

Not too bad for a free app.  Sometimes does not tell me when I make a mistake.

### 3/5 — 20% Battery for every 30mins

*2023-06-30, version 920*

TLDR; Started the game at 44% battery, ended with 25% after half an hour. 

Above says it all really. Doesn't seem to be well optimized, Macbook Pro 14 M1 got decently warm, could feel it through the keyboard. I've played more than a few games on this machine and this is by far too simple of a game to run this hot. 

The game itself is simple and to the point but perhaps knowing a mistake has been made before reaching the end of the game would be helpful to others. Also labels or a guide for what the buttons do would also be nice. 

All in all this was what I was looking for but I wasn't expecting to have to connect to my charger after one match. It doesn't deserve anything less than 3 stars but the battery drain is unacceptable.
