***** NOVEMBER UPDATE *****
10 new puzzles, all 100 puzzles are out now!
-------------------------------------
Presented by Cracking The Cryptic, YouTube's most popular Sudoku channel, this is the brand new “Classic Sudoku” game that their viewers have been requesting for the last two years!
Simon Anthony and Mark Goodliffe, the hosts of Cracking The Cryptic, have assembled a most extraordinary collection of sudoku puzzles. The sudokus in the game cover a wide range of difficulty with something for everyone - and also require an incredible range of techniques to solve them efficiently! Each of these special puzzles had to qualify for inclusion in the game by passing our rigorous play-testing - a test that NO other sudoku game on the market would pass. This play-testing ensures that a human being has actually thought about the journey you, the solver, will go on as you work through the puzzle. No computer testing here!
Indeed our more advanced puzzles have been carefully designed to showcase some of the diabolical techniques in an intuitive way with the aim of helping solvers UNDERSTAND the patterns involved.
In Cracking The Cryptic’s games, players start with zero stars and earn stars by solving puzzles. The more puzzles you solve, the more stars you earn and the more puzzles you get to play. Only the most dedicated (and cleverest) sudoku players will finish all the puzzles!
Featured authors include (obviously) Simon and Mark but also some other authors who have produced popular puzzles on the channel!
Mark and Simon have both represented the UK many times in the World Sudoku Championship and you can find more of their puzzles (and lots of others) on the internet’s biggest sudoku channel, Cracking The Cryptic.

Ratings and Reviews
Great Sudoku app
Overall really good, but I would like to request some features:
-Option for dark-mode. Often you are staring at the white grid for a while, and my eyes are sensitive to light/contrast. The theme helps but not with the grid. Inverted black/white, or some other solution would be much appreciated.
-Option for the number bar to be above the grid. Would be easier to use, at least for me
Good puzzles but could improve hints
I find the puzzles nice but I bought the app hoping it would teach me some advanced logic solving more than it does. There are no tutorials on what X wings or other solves actually look like. I was hoping that the hints would be a bit more relevant plus the hint box is right in the way. For instance it has told me there’s a triple which I’ve annotated already but won’t tell me why that’s helpful. I often have to use more than 1 hint. Maybe it’s set for some one more ahead in their sudoku game than me. One or 2 optional ‘practice’ puzzles which have annotated advanced techniques would improve it for me.
The best
Real puzzles created by real people, not stupid algorithms. Properly educational tips that help you develop your skills. The game play is almost perfect, just a few small niggles, like selection not being part of the undo. One big issue… only 100 puzzles. I finished them all. Please give us some more puzzles!!!!
