About Sudoku Traditional Puzzle Game
Sudoku — the traditional puzzle game. Smart hints, pencil notes, and a strategy guide — wrapped in a calm board that works in light and dark mode. Designed for iPhone and iPad and tuned for people who love a clean board and a clear head. If you get stuck, a hint showing which cell can be solved next is only a fingertip away. Still no idea? The hint can optionally show the solution strategy to be applied for the next cell, and if the strategy name does not ring a bell, a tap on it will show an explanation. Fill the 9×9 grid so every row, column, and 3×3 box contains each digit from 1 to 9 exactly once. Start easy or push yourself with harder difficulties. Every puzzle has a unique solution and is solvable with pure logic — no guessing required. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • Clean, distraction-free board that works beautifully in light and dark mode • Pencil notes for tracking candidates in every cell • Smart hints that point you toward the next logical step • Check and Show when you want a nudge — or a full answer • Challenge Mode: no help, limited mistakes, for a real challenge • Statistics that follow your progress — win rate, best times, and activity by week, month or year, kept private and easy to turn off • Strategy guide built in — learn Naked Singles, Hidden Pairs, X-Wing, and more • Auto-save — pick up exactly where you left off • iCloud sync — your settings and statistics can stay in sync across iPhone and iPad • Supports English and German PLAY YOUR WAY Choose a difficulty that matches your mood, from gentle warm-ups to demanding puzzles that reward patient logic. Toggle Challenge Mode when you want the stakes to feel real. LEARN AS YOU PLAY Not sure what to do next? The built-in help walks you through the rules, the controls, and the solving techniques used by seasoned players — with plain-language explanations of every strategy. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. NO NONSENSE. Sudoku is free to play. If you enjoy it, a friendly Tip jar lets you say thanks — entirely optional. Download, open, play. That's it.
What’s new
Version 1.1.2 · Updated September 28, 2026
• Fixed the number pad overlapping the Hint, Check and Show buttons on some iPhones. • Button labels around the number pad now fit narrow windows and landscape instead of being cut off. • Button labels have stronger contrast, so they are easier to read in light and dark mode. • Blue and yellow text is easier to read in dark mode. • Statistics now count a puzzle in the period you finished it, not the one you started it in. • The hint explanation now stays on screen in landscape, even for cells in the bottom row. • The guided tour now fits every screen and text size, and Replay tour works again on iPad.
