SudoKing reinvents Sudoku with 2 superimposed grids: the first with 9 numbers, the second with 9 colors. Each number from 1 to 9 and each color must appear only once in every row, column, and 3 × 3 box. But 1 additional rule changes everything: each of the 81 number-color combinations must also be unique. A simple rule that opens up new deductions and completely transforms the Sudoku experience. Progress through 7 levels, watch your avatar evolve, solve historical riddles, and hunt for the Easter egg hidden in every grid. The Beginner level is free and unlimited. Other levels and options are available as in-app purchases, with no subscription. 9 numbers × 9 colors = 81 unique combinations. You’ve never played Sudoku like this.
