## Sudoku 101 (Free) Description
Wondering what the hype is about Sudoku?

This is the introductory course for Sudoku, ideal for beginners. It is a Sudoku game, a generator, a solver, and a teacher/tutor.

First, it is a real Sudoku game.

- Puzzle generator for unlimited play, at the difficulty level appropriate for beginners.
- Clean and simple game board, so you can focus on the playing instead of being distracted by colors and/or graphics.
- Ability to enter the game manually, copy from books, newspaper, or other Sudoku game software.
- Tap on a clue to highlight potential locations, tap again to go back to normal viewing.
- Automatic or manual pencil marks, which can be switched on and off during the play with one tap.
- Automatically save the game when you leave, continue when you come back.
- Option to use either symmetrical or non-symmetrical Sudoku boards.
- Option to show error.

Even more, it is your private tutorial. It teaches you the logic and pattern of Sudoku, with its multi-step teaching system. All of the techniques are human logic, not computer brutal force.

- When you are stuck, tap "Teach me". It highlights certain cells of interest.
- Tap again, it will tell you the technique to look for in those cells. A "What is..." buttons also shows up. You can look up the meaning of this technique.
- Tap again, it will show you the logic. Which candidate is of interest, why, and how it helps you to solve a cell, or to remove digits from possible candidates.
- Tap again, it updates the board, ready for the next step.

During the course of Sudoku 101, you will go through the following levels:
- Learning Basics: This level is for the absolute beginner. It uses Sudoku boards which be solved by the Full House.
- Easy: At this level, the puzzles can be solved with Full House, Naked Single, Hidden Single, and occasional pairs.
- Moderate: You will learn Naked Pair, Hidden Pair, and Locked Candidates.

Check out the screenshots to see how the teaching works.

### **--- "Sudoku 101"
Have been a fan of this for ages - then along came IOS8. What a disaster. Just locks up all the time - sooo wrist-slittingly frustrating esp if using the enter it yourself function. :-(
-- Andy_760, 2014-12-14

### ***** "One of the best"
Display is one of the best - soft on the eye. The pencil entries are always the same font size (unlike some) and can be auto-filled. 
Particularly like being able to input your own puzzle - great help when tackling a tough one from the newspaper! 
The teaching aids are also nicely integrated.
-- Rjmusto, 2009-11-12

### ***** "Very good"
Very good!
-- Trancongson2000, 2009-01-02

### **--- "Not great"
Its okay, just a little too basic for my liking, maybe thats because of the light version (and it really is very light - dont give anything away will ya!!)

The board is very sharp looking with nice colours.  I found it a nanosplit unresponsive and would have liked it a little bit quicker.  With the animation setting on, it was very slow.

Whilst the popup input box is sharp and clear, it does cover the board which can be disruptive.

The TEACH ME option is fine, but not very descriptive compared to fabulous training games like Enjoy sudoku daily.  

This one has some good points, but can possibly survive against the other games available without a lot of improvment.

And its so quiet - no sounds at all.  Its just personality free I'm afraid.

Thank you

### ***** "Sudoku"
Super game!!!
