Sudoku· Classic Puzzle Games 4+

I have had this app for years, and take it from me. This app is perfect for people who like sudoku, here are some traits about the app, very reliable, barely any ads, never asks you to rate (but i did it anyway), gives you many options, and gives you daily challenges! If you like reliable apps, this is the app for you.

My preference is paper/pencil puzzles. I downloaded this to have something easier to keep me busy while waiting for my mother at medical appointments. I immediately turned the sound off so not to be disruptive to others, but when starting a new game the offensive music comes on with the ad that must be viewed for at least a few seconds. I play these games to relax, not to be competitive with other unseen people. There are two many stressors to keep this game from being fun. I don’t need a clock to race against, and would prefer that it could be toggled off. Plus, when a new game is launched, the clock starts and I lose seconds watching the ad before I can skip it. I don’t care how many mistakes I make, keep track if you must, but I would like the option to clear the board and start over like I do with paper/pencil. Inadvertent mistakes are too easy to do with an errant tap on the keyboard. I pay attention to whether it was a finger tap mistake, or a logic error. Too many logic errors I’d clear the puzzle and start over. Plus, when kicked out of a game, the offensive music starts again disrupting those around me. I don’t mind the ads, they are necessary when enjoying a free app, but sound off should mean sound off all the time. Let me enjoy myself playing the game without the sudoku police monitoring how I play.

I don’t like that when I’m using the pencil (making notes) that it won’t let me put the wrong number in. Usually I notice my mistake immediately but sometimes I’m just wrong but if the app doesn’t even let you make a mistake it’s basically playing for you. Also when I need to remove a tiny number from the box because I’ve now used that number somewhere else and it’s no longer an option for this new box I have to erase all of my notes and redo them. I should just be able to tap on the number to remove it. Also, I accidentally put a number in a box instead of making a note with the pencil. Since it was correct (it told me, I didn’t know yet that it was correct) it would let me erase it! Again! Cheating!
