***** MARCH UPDATE *****
20 new puzzles, 100 puzzles total!
-------------------------------------
Presented by Cracking The Cryptic, YouTube’s most popular Sudoku channel, comes a new game featuring one of the most popular puzzle types: Thermo Sudoku.
How does Thermo Sudoku work? Well each sudoku grid contains thermometer shapes (often drawn to create themes) and digits on thermometers must increase as one moves further from the bulb end. The interactions between the thermometers leads to new logical ideas and patterns that completely refreshes the standard sudoku solving experience.
As with their other games (‘Classic Sudoku’, ‘Sandwich Sudoku’ and ‘Chess 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 viewers to be better solvers and, in these 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.

Thermo Sudoku FAQ
Is Thermo Sudoku free?
Yes, Thermo Sudoku is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Thermo Sudoku legit?
🤔 The Thermo Sudoku app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
When I started watching Cracking the Cryptic I was obsessed with thermo sudoku. And now they release an app with so many carefully handcrafted puzzle. I stayed up nearly all night and finished 13 puzzles in a day! Thank you so much for the wonderful app!
Awful controls
The controls are so bad as to make it almost unplayable. Why not use the same number pad as Cracking the Crypto? If you fix this, i’ll change my rating to five stars.
Bug: Timing Error
Great app, but sometimes when exiting and re-entering the app while solving the puzzle, the timer jumps, sometimes hundred of minutes at a time. I didn’t have this error on the Classic or Chess sudoku app.
Haven’t followed through on promise
Still waiting for the last 20 puzzles that were promised. Been at 80 for a while
Broken Promise
The app description says it will be enhanced to 100 puzzles within a year of introduction. It has now been over 20 months and we are still waiting.
Love this app but 1 really annoying bug
Love Cracking the Cryptic youtube channel so i had to get 1 of their apps. These puzzles are a lot of fun. My only issue is that there is 1 weird bug that can be quite annoying. Whenever you leave the app and load it back up, there is a wrong number put into box where you left off. Happens almost every time. Normally if this happens without resetting the app, you can just hit the undo button.
App Falls Short on Promises
It’s been well over a year and this app is still 20 puzzles short of the “100 puzzles within first year” promise upon launch. And, yet, the developers are releasing new games with similar promises.
PLEASE keep your promises to people who bought your game at launch and release the remaining puzzles for this app.
Excellent Puzzles but…
A marvelous collection of puzzles but most are locked which requires completing the easy ones to unlock more puzzles….WHY? I PAID $4.95!!! It’s the least logical part of the app. Remove the locks ASAP.
Too hard
I really enjoy doing sudoku on this software, and I enjoy the Thermo puzzles, up to the point where they get too hard. Puzzle #79 is ridiculously hard. I got as far as could, starting looking at hints and could not get past the fourth hint, i understand what it’s trying to say but it doesn’t fit the puzzle and no progress can be made from this hint unless you just take it on faith you should remove the candidates it says to. I think if people want super hard puzzles they can find them on their own, no need to include such convoluted logic in a mass marketed app. I have had this trouble with other cracking the cryptic apps too, the last few puzzles are just stupid hard and make me wanna shoot myself in the head
Great app, but unique solutions not guaranteed.
I have now discovered two different puzzles with multiple solutions. The first one was easy to find the right solution, but the second one is less straightforward.
