Sudoku with handwriting recognition: Real paper feel, ad-free!
Sudoku - Paperlike brings the classic puzzle book to your display – but without eraser dust and with modern convenience.
Forget confusing number keypads at the edge of the screen. Here, your handwriting takes center stage. You simply write the numbers directly into the fields, just like you would on paper.
What makes the game special:
Writing instead of typing
The app recognizes your handwriting immediately. You decide: Should your own writing remain in the field or be converted into digital text?
Intuitive correction
Made a mistake? Simply cross out the number ("scribble it out") and it will be deleted.
Smart notes
The app is faster than paper here: just tap the corresponding spot in the field to add a note. But if you prefer the "old school" way, you can still write notes by hand in the corners.
New: Finger writing & minimap
Perfect for cell phones and small displays: if you don't have a pen handy, activate finger writing mode. Thanks to the innovative minimap, you can navigate through the puzzle at lightning speed – much faster than with conventional 2-finger zooming.
Privacy & focus:
No ads: Enjoy the game without interruptions.
No tracking: The app does not collect user data.
Fairness model:
The basic version is free and ad-free.
With a one-time in-app purchase, you can support development and unlock additional features: different color designs, access to past daily puzzles, and help functions such as the fully automatic candidate mode.
