Microsoft Sudoku

App is hood works well. Challenges are stimulators for mind. But the ads are very irksome and persistent. Ads could be made simple and short, not tiresome to watch and exit.

All I get is a loading screen…

I think this video game depiction is great. But could use some more themes.

I had high hopes when I downloaded Microsoft’s Sudoku to replace the truly intrusive Sudoku 2 adware. I wasn’t disappointed by the games, even though the free version has annoyingly-long ads with audio (always on at the start - grrr). However, I soon discovered what others have already mentioned - very often the program will get stuck loading, with the only way to get it going again without losing all your points and levels is to turn your iPhone off and back on. For me, this happens about every fifth game, on average. I’d subscribe to the paid version in order to get rid of the ads, but not when I have to keep restarting my phone in order to play another game. Oh, and the games load slowly anyway, so you can’t tell for at least 45 seconds whether the next game is going to load or if I should instead find some other, more productive way to waste time. I should know better by now, but somehow I expected better off Microsoft.

I love this version of Soduku! I would like to suggest two useful improvements. 1st, change the naming convention of each puzzle to puzzle instead of level. Example: puzzle 95 would be in level 100 or series 1. 2nd, give option to autofill the hints.

I like how Microsoft sudoku helps me learn problem solving skills and mathematics and because these have different levels, I don’t have to feel worried about going to medium hard or expert because I get to choose which ones I do instead of some games you play and then it just gets hard out of nowhere also I like how they have an option for images if it’s hard for some people to just look at numbers all day so yes, I would recommend to people of the ages of nine and up

Upon opening the app that I have used dozens of times, it prompted me to hit my skill level. Now, I am forever stuck on a tutorial puzzle that is broken and doesn’t let you move on from it. It won’t let you put numbers into the puzzle, and won’t recognize any feedback on the tutorial puzzle.

I have this app on both my laptop and my phone, but they’re not syncing. Why not? I’m logged into the same account on both devices. Syncing should be easy. I asked Copilot and it gave me false instructions. So Copilot doesn’t even know how to fix a Microsoft issue-_useless!

This game is so %*%*# frustrating to play due to their idiotic controls. When you’re adding notes, you must be VERY careful where you click. I have many times been in Notes mode and accidentally entered in a number outside of Notes mode and made a mistake. There is no way to lock it into Notes mode and you will eventually make a mistake. Does MS ever test their *^^%^* games?

This app no longer rotates from portrait to landscape on my iPad. It is no longer my favorite sudoku app
