Fireworks Sudoku is a free puzzle game with over 25,000 boards that streamlines Sudoku to make it more fun and less work.

This free and fully offline Sudoku puzzle game has many features to make solving logic puzzles more enjoyable and rewarding, including unlimited hints, duplicate highlighting and automatic removal of notes. Many settings allow you to tailor the game to suit you perfectly. Fireworks Sudoku contains over 25,000 classic 9 x 9 Sudoku boards. Every board only has one solution.
