Cracking the Cryptic vs Hemiscope

OUR NEWEST PACK – CLASSIC VOLUME #2! Classic sudoku is where it all began, and there is still lots of skill to be deployed to solve classic puzzles, and new techniques to be explored. Nikoli, the Japanese puzzle house, named and popularised sudoku from 1984, and we have commissioned 20 puzzles from them for this Classic Sudoku 2 app. We have also created 20 ourselves, and sourced 20 more from Sam Cappleman-Lynes, the brilliant British sudoku expert. The result is a wonderful 60-puzzle pack which will delight and challenge you. -------------------- Welcome to the brand new Sudoku app from the most popular Sudoku channel, Cracking The Cryptic. Unlike other Sudoku apps, we feature handcrafted and curated puzzles from the world’s best Sudoku constructors. Each collection features puzzles made by various authors that are now familiar names to those who follow the channel. Authors like Phistomefel, Clover, Sam Cappleman-Lynes, Christoph Seeliger, Richard Stolk, jovi_al, Qodec, Prasanna Seshadri and of course, Simon and Mark! Downloading Cracking the Cryptic will give you access to our first free collection – a variety pack by Prasanna Seshadri featuring 7 puzzles inspired from our previous Sudoku apps; Sandwich, Classic, Chess, Thermo, Miracle, Killer and Arrow Sudoku. We also have purchasable packs designed for all skill levels and featuring many unique variants not seen previously. We’ll be releasing more free and paid packs in the future so keep an eye on the app for more Sudoku content from Cracking The Cryptic!

Eight daily puzzles, printed fresh at midnight. Then race a friend across the islands, or see how far you can survive. Hemiscope is a daily edition, not an endless feed. Everything resets at midnight, everyone plays the same puzzles, and when you've finished the day's eight you're done. Come back tomorrow. TODAY'S EIGHT Hemiscope — Find the mystery country in eight tries. Every guess tells you how far away it is and in which direction, plus its region, population, area, shared flag colours and whether it's landlocked. Your guesses light up on a 3D globe. Atlas — You're given a country. Tap where its capital sits on the globe. Five rounds, scored on how close you land. Timeline — Seven moments in history, one timeline. Drag each card to where you think it belongs. Three lives. Vault — Three riddles, three digits, one safe. Every riddle answers to a single digit, so answer them, turn the dial, and try the combination. Odd One Out — Four countries. Three of them belong. Tap the one that doesn't. Ladder — A handful of things, one correct order. The category changes daily: tallest mountains one day, biggest deserts the next. Pinpoint — One country, five scales. Place it on each and find out how close you were. No Idea — One impossible number a day, like how many islands Sweden has. You get one guess, and the closer you land, the higher you score. Every game is scored out of 100, and your report card shows how many of the eight you solved. Share your whole day as a spoiler-free grid. DUEL: ISLAND RUSH Eight challenges, one shared clock, two phones. Answer faster and better than your rival to build golden shortcuts across the islands. Most steps down the course wins. Rounds mix trivia, flags, map drops, time shuffles and the vault dial. Tap Find a match to race whoever else is looking, or race a friend live, or take on Hemibot at one of four difficulties. SURVIVAL: HIGHER OR LOWER Two countries, one stat. Is the next one higher or lower? Population, forests, coffee, Big Macs, and the calls get closer the further you walk down the canyon. Three lives and no end to the path. How far can you go? TOURNAMENTS: ON THEIR WAY Live events where everyone plays the same rounds at the same moment, for stars and a place on the podium. Turn on tournament alerts to hear when one opens. YOUR EXPLORER Every puzzle, race and run earns stars. Spend them on explorers, banners, card frames and emotes, and earn medals and titles by playing. Your look travels with you onto your player card. Sign in with Apple is optional. You only need an account to add friends, duel them, join tournaments and appear on the leaderboard. The daily puzzles, Survival, your stats and your streaks all work without one. Hemiscope is free to play. Ads appear only on finished screens, never during play, and a single purchase removes them. Made by Kyro Game Studios.
