Amazing!
Love all the CTC apps so far, and I’m enjoying the different types of puzzles they offer as well as the amazingly constructed puzzles in each.
Description
***** AUGUST UPDATE *****
15 new King puzzles, all 100 puzzles are out now!
-------------------------------------
Presented by Cracking The Cryptic, YouTube’s most popular Sudoku channel, comes a new game that connects two of the world’s biggest mind games: Chess and Sudoku!
How does Chess Sudoku work? Well we’ve taken the classic sudoku game everyone knows and loves and created puzzles with chess-related twists! There are three different types of puzzles in the game: Knight Sudoku; King Sudoku and Queen Sudoku.
In Knight Sudoku, in addition to the normal rules of sudoku (no repeated digit in a row/column/3x3 box) a digit must not appear a chess knight’s move away from itself. This simple extra restriction introduces lots of clever additional logic that makes the puzzle even more interesting!
King Sudoku and Queen Sudoku work the same way: ie it’s always normal sudoku but, in King Sudoku a digit must not be a single diagonal move away from itself; and, in Queen Sudoku, every 9 in the grid acts like a chess Queen and must not be in the same row/column/3x3 box OR diagonal of any other 9!
As with their other games (‘Classic Sudoku’ and ‘Sandwich Sudoku’), Simon Anthony and Mark Goodliffe (the hosts of Cracking The Cryptic) have personally crafted the hints for the puzzles. So you know that every puzzle has been play-tested by a human being to ensure that the sudoku is interesting and fun to solve.
In Cracking The Cryptic’s games, players start with zero stars and earn stars by solving puzzles. The more puzzles you solve, the more stars you earn and the more puzzles you get to play. Only the most dedicated (and cleverest) sudoku players will finish all the puzzles. Of course the difficulty is carefully calibrated to ensure lots of puzzles at every level (from easy through to extreme). Anyone familiar with their YouTube channel will know that Simon and Mark take pride in teaching to be better solvers and, with their games, they always craft the puzzles with the mindset of trying to help solvers improve their skills.
Mark and Simon have both represented the UK many times at the World Sudoku Championship and you can find more of their puzzles (and lots of others) on the internet’s biggest sudoku channel Cracking The Cryptic.
Features:
100 beautiful puzzles from the Knight, King and Queen variants

Chess Sudoku Reviews
Queen sodoku not working?
Is me that does not understand it or is the queen sodoku not working? There is several numbers coming in the same diagonal, sometimes event within a kings moove!
Awesome
Excellent app! Love the YouTube channel as well. Thank you.
Awesome!
Your apps and YT channel are very impressive. You have given a life and beauty to these puzzles I hadn’t experienced previously. Please consider consolidating the apps into one and offer IAP for the different modes, even if I have to pay again for the current three. Well worth not having three (and growing?) apps on my devices for essentially the same thing, and it’d probably be easier for you to maintain. Corner note alignment could perhaps be improved, as it’s hard to get a read on them when they scatter with a different number of notes in each cell of a block’s row/column. Could the apps remember what puzzle I opened last and center the puzzle list on it so I don’t have to scroll way down every time? Thanks so much for these! Stay healthy.
A stellar third entry!
Bravo on this app, the sets of puzzles are phenomenal and I’m having a ton of fun solving them! With more on the horizon I could not be more excited to keep solving.
Awesome puzzles!
Another great set of puzzles from Cracking the Cryptic! Great interface with nice customization settings, and hand-crafted hints that allow you to solve the puzzles organically even when you're stuck.
Chess soduku make less sense, queen moves especially
I am a chess player so I expected chess soduku to make sense. Queen move ones though clearly have some additional rule. It says no duplicates on the diagonals, but it’s only some diagonals and not the others. For instance in puzzle 2, the 1s x out all the spots in row 5. In puzzle 1, it starts with two fours across the long upper left to lower right diagonal. Huh?!
More puzzles?
I love this app!! The chess move limitations add such interesting new patterns and techniques. However, I’ve finished all the knight move puzzles multiple times and am getting bored of them! I’d love to see another update with more puzzles.
Multiple solutions
Puzzles number 30 In the knight sudoku has 2 solutions.
Queen’s move errors
Several other reviews have stated it already, but the puzzles don’t seem to follow the queen’s move restrictions very well. One review listed a few and the very first one had multiple contradictions. I love the app but the devs should probably take a look at this.
