Ink Sudoku by Simon & Gina
Sudoku and poem crosswords
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Two ink-and-paper games a day: a sudoku that hides a poem, and a crossword woven from the classics. Big, calm, made to share.
Two quiet games on rice paper, one of each for every day.
SUDOKU WITH A HIDDEN POEM
Solve the daily 9x9 the classic way. As your answers fall into place, a classical Chinese poem slowly surfaces beneath the board, brushed in ink. Finish the grid and the whole poem is revealed, pressed with a red seal, and saved to your collection. Prefer plain numbers or brush-drawn hanzi numerals? Toggle either. Six difficulties, plus a gentler 6x6 for warming up.
POEM CROSSWORD (诗词填字)
Famous lines from the great classical poets, floating on the page and crossing at their shared characters. Tap characters from a stroke-sorted bank to rebuild each line. A fresh puzzle every day, with its own streak and leaderboard.
A POEM A DAY
Every puzzle you finish, in either game, adds a poem to a growing anthology of the classics - a quiet library you build one day at a time.
MADE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
- Big type and big touch targets, easy on older eyes

Sit down with a cup of tea and a poem. Ink Sudoku is made to be unhurried.
