HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (2.8 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Confusing

You can fulfill all obvious parts of the puzzle, but the puzzle won’t be “solved”. Almost like there are multiple solutions and the game is only looking for one.

★★★★★Dec 30, 2024
Ads before and after you play

Ads to refill play tokens, ads autoroll after every game. I’m shocked you don’t have to watch an ad to install the app.

Simply the best Akari app!

Mathematician here, I absolutely love logic and number puzzles. Sudoku was my favorite for a long time until I discovered Akari! Now that Nikoli no longer has an app, this one is a must! Thank you!

★★★★★Oct 16, 2024
Fun type of puzzle… all stuck behind a pay wall/ads

At least make maps for free in the first couple of chapters and then i different place to purchase more maps. Kinda crazy, makes it less fun that it’s $2… A PACK

★★★★★Oct 15, 2024
Very Interesting Game!

I just downloaded this game yesterday and honestly I was very surprised at how well made it is! The beginner tips are very thorough, and it definitely makes for an interesting way to pass the time! One little suggestion I do have is about the highlights. Would it be possible to make it such that you can highlight a cell with two colors at once? For example, if you want to put both blue and green in a cell, would it be possible to show both colors? It would make it a lot more convenient for marking chains. Other than that, this is a great game! I’m surprised it hasn’t gotten more attention. Keep up the good work! :)
