User Reviews

Overall, Sudoku・ offers strong core gameplay, a large puzzle library, and a clean UI that some users praised for larger boxes and daily engagement. However, many reviews center on intrusive ads after recent updates, including full-screen ads and board ads that are hard to bypass. Users also report readability problems from new highlights and overlays, making notes and numbers harder to see. A perceived shift toward monetization and redesign has frustrated longtime players. A minority report issues restoring purchases across devices. Puzzle quality is solid, but ads and UI changes hurt the experience.

Pros

Previously ad-free after purchasing packs, valued by long-time users.
Strong core Sudoku gameplay with a large puzzle library and long-standing quality.
UI improvements such as larger puzzle boxes and a cleaner layout.
Addictive daily play that exercises the mind.

Cons

Intrusive and pervasive ads (including full-screen ads and ads on the board) with little to no skip options.
New highlighting/overlay changes make notes and numbers harder to see and distract from gameplay.
Perceived shift toward monetization and redesign that prioritizes ads over usability and aesthetics.
Some users report issues restoring purchases or ad-free features when moving to new devices.

I have been playing on this app for years. I pay for new puzzles and enjoyed the ad free experience. Now, they have ads with no options to get ride of them. This game was my peaceful getaway. Please give us the option of no ads. If I pay for packages… idk why I need to endure ads. After years of being a loyal customer, I may have to find a new Sudoku app. Disappointing.

I’ve had this app downloaded on my phone for years. I understand the app is feee so I have never been bothered by the ads that play between games or when you first open the app, but now there is also an obnoxious flashing, bright colored ad on the actual game board as you play which is very distracting while playing and also ugly. The best thing about this app was that after the ad was done, you weren’t bothered by them again in the same game session unless you closed out the app. Off to the next Sudoku app that’s actually ad free

I’d love to know how the game is, in game, but I never got there. The opening screen requires you to agree to the terms to play. It doesn’t let you read the terms, but you’ve got to agree to them. Then I was greeted with a full screen add to play a game. I refused to play the game. It kept going for several very long minutes and refused to give me an exit screen. I finally complied, just to move forward. I played the game for the better part of 5 very long minutes, to be given the chance to download the game. So I did. I still don’t have an exit button. I’m going to delete and go play the game it advertised (after I make sure it’s not owned by the same parent company). So much potential, ruined by greed. I’d have paid probably $10 for the game because it looked so nice. No chance I’m sitting through adds and I’m certainly not renting the game for a subscription fee. Legendary fail. Possibly the worst app experience in 15 years. Wish I could attach a screenshot of the downloaded available game to go to with no method of exiting. I’ve closed and reopened the app only to have to start the process over again, with the same advertisement, which turned out to be a bait and switch add. The downloaded game is nothing like the game you’re forced to play.
