Best sudoku app EVER!!

I play sudoku a lot and I have tried most of the sudoku apps. This is by far and away the best sudoku app ever. If u like sudoku you gotta have this app
As well as many levels (and there are actually difficulty levels which are genuinely hard unlike most apps), there is also a training guide which allows you to learn many techniques. These guides are comprehensive and start with simple methods and work through to the expert techniques.
Within the game you can use the hint which will actually talk you through the hint so that you can understand why you can use that particular method and because it is named you can explore the training aids to learn it more fully and then test yourself using samples.
This app also offers different ways of playing sudoku - such as hints / no hints, changing figures representing the digits, plus a version which replicates pen and paper i.e: no automated help.
I haven't yet found a killer sudoku version of the app offered by these guys but hopefully they will release one soon.
Definitely the best, most thorough sudoku app I have ever played. If I could give it ten stars I would!

So glad I found this.

Having played Sudoku since it was call "single Number" I have always been puzzled by super hard examples where there seemed to be no possible way to get a result. This wonderful app will provide puzzles of varying difficulty or even let you photograph your own from a book and then provide move by move hints on how the results are obtained. Fish, Wings, Bugs, are some of the linked formations you will eventually recognise and use. My head is spinning but I am so glad I found this.

A great game for maths lovers

This in my opinion is the best game in the Apps store. Gets you thinking and you don’t have to spend a penny. You can start easy and when you’ve mastered each level just keep going. You can even import your daily newspaper sudoku into the app thereby saving paper. What’s not to like and admire. This version has everything.
