With daily games at 17 difficulty levels, novices and expert players alike will appreciate :) Sudoku. Our tutorial, extensive feature set, and advanced hint system offer something for every player. The more you play, the more you will enjoy it!

For unlimited puzzles, check out our other Sudoku products: :) Sudoku + (paid) and Sudoku Joy (free).

Our multi-stage hint system starts with a gentle reminder to get you back on track and works up to an illustration of the exact technique to use and how it applies to the current board. Use our hints to ease those frustrating moments and to learn how to be a better player.

Features include:

- 17 difficulty levels, something for everyone
- Tutorial teaches you new techniques

- Advanced techniques at the higher levels, including X-Wings, sashimi fish, and coloring
- User interface optimized for fewer touches
- Choice of six color schemes
- Never covers up the board while you are playing
- Infinite undo/redo
- Undo to the last solvable position
- Board solvable indicator

- Highlighting helps you discover patterns
- Game clock; compares your time to other players
- Avoids graphic frills that distract from play
- Choice of digit styles, including Kanji and Hanzi

All games are true Sudoku, with symmetry and a single solution that can be discovered by logic alone. If you doubt that a puzzle can be solved by logic, simply have the hint system explain it to you step by step.

If you enjoy Sudoku daily, this is the app for you!

Improvement on the older version I have on my Mac.

This is my favourite free sudoku app so far. Our Mac version does not have so many levels or the wild card bonus game and so the next level can sometimes be an uncomfortable jump for those of us that are not natural solvers. This improved version encourages me more. The only criticism is the tutorials seem to only speak to the very people that would not need them.
Update: Still doing them first thing to wake my brain up, still doing it and improving my skills without tutorials. I prefer to discover my own solutions, I find it more satisfying, I do not like being spoon fed.

Best Suduko app

I have tried many suduko apps and found this one the best for me. I was able to consistently solve hard puzzles on other apps but then the jump to expert was beyond me and despite reading online tutorials I was unable to solve these naturally. This app takes you through step by step using the hints so that you can see what you are missing. Once the ‘penny drops’ it is easier to use these techniques independently. I love it!

Excellent!

This is such a marvellous sudoku app! I've been playing it for many years and, no matter which new sudoku app with how many new fangled gimmicks comes on the market, this one stays the best.

It has no cutesy interface, but it has a tremendously wide range of skill levels, very good tutorials, and has so many options that I can truly play the game my way.
