★★★★★ Ads that don't end after every game.
★★★★★ This used to be a great game with minimal ads, now there is an ad for each play.
★★★★★ I've always enjoyed playing and using this app, but recently the ads are overwhelming.
10 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ I literally paid for the ad free version and they turned right around and updated their privacy policy which states they reserve the right to sell your browser habits.
★★★★★ Today there was one in particular that was directing me to download a different Sudoku app saying that this one has been updated, but it was clearly a different developer.
★★★★★ I try to start a game, but an ad pops up telling me I must update before playing.

★★★★★ This means that you can inadvertently place a number in a wrong cell by accident when playing against the clock, and you may not realize it until the puzzle crashes and you can't solve it.
★★★★★ There are now constant, distracting pop up's across the top, the coloring is darker and harder to read and the system crashes my iPad regularly.
★★★★★ It just freezes making it necessary to close down the game and reopen it.

★★★★★ Speaking of the Expert level, more than half of the games that I have played recently have required Trial And Error to solve it, which is not an appropriate solution method.
★★★★★ Not sure if overly intrusive ads play in game by design or bug.
★★★★★ With the updates to iOS, this game often gets stuck in the middle of a game, its flashing, the key pad is unresponsive and the clock stops running. It takes more than just shutting the screen down and opening it back…

★★★★★ And yet apps and games get more and more expensive.
★★★★★ Speaking of the Expert level, more than half of the games that I have played recently have required Trial And Error to solve it, which is not an appropriate solution method.
★★★★★ I have been playing this game for years but recently it has been serving me ads to “update my game” or phony messages from Apple stating my phone is “compromised “. Very slimy.

I literally paid for the ad free version and they turned right around and updated their privacy policy which states they reserve the right to sell your browser habits. Explain to me why a sudoku app needs to monitor and sell my browser history??? Deleted…
Trash click bait app. Ads that don't end after every game. Fing waste of time. Stay away.
This used to be a great game with minimal ads, now there is an ad for each play. Time to delete. GREEDY DEVELOPERS
I’ve always enjoyed playing and using this app, but recently the ads are overwhelming. Today there was one in particular that was directing me to download a different Sudoku app saying that this one has been updated, but it was clearly a different developer. Need to fix this.
Used to be a company I liked supporting. Their games were always clean and tight. I’ve downloaded and bought several of them. Unfortunately this sudoku one sucks now. Something changed. It has an ad on the screen throughout the entire gameplay, which was always fine. I understand that ads bring in revenue. But now there’s an ad just for opening the app and one at the start of every new game and/or the finish of every game. And they’re not quick ads! They take A LONG TIME! 🙄 And most of them you have to interact with otherwise it just sits there. You’re forced to click a link then close the link then go back to the game. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. It’s truly disgusting how soulless these developers have become. It’s like they’re purposely making or allowing ads to be more and more frustrating in the hopes that people just pay outright for the app. But the problems is the apps aren’t just a few bucks anymore. Technology has gotten better. Processing has gotten faster. AI can do much of the coding now. All of which equals less overhead. And yet apps and games get more and more expensive. $15 for a Sudoku game on my phone?? Get over yourself. Delusions of grandeur mixed with soullessness and greed. Seems like the direction everything is going these days.
The ad plays forever, with no seeming way to get past it. The ad wants you to go to the store and buy their game. If you don’t go to the store, no Sudoku for you. I was ok with a 10 second ad. I’m not ok with a forever ad or an ad that forces me to interact with it. Avoid this version of Sudoku. The game used to be good with some great features. But if you can’t play it, good features mean nothing.
