Great Suduko

Great implementation. I tried several other Suduko from store, but this was the best. I liked clean graphics, it allows to concentrate on the game without distractions. The "adaptive" difficulty level works great. Great job overall.
Beautifully designed.

This game is sleek, simple, and gorgeous. Wonderful design and functionality. It was the first sudoku app I tried, and I won't need another.
Cellular Data warning?
Marc Lincoln
I’d give this app 5 stars because it looks and works great. Really clean look with easy to understand pen and pencil marks. But I gotta take a star for the "Cellular Data is Turned Off for Minidoku” warning that I keep getting. The app’s website says no internet connection is needed, but it keeps nagging me to connect. Why? Annoying, but not enough to delete the game.
Current version is less "minimal"

I have loved this app for several months. Gave it 5 stars on my original review. The current version introduces several poor changes, in my opinion. - GameCenter. I dislike GameCenter. I find it intrusive. I don't play sudoku to compare myself to other players, I do it to stretch my mind and relax. Having a GameCenter notification pop up disrupts the minimalistic feel of this otherwise good app. - I dislike the new larger rounded number buttons. They feel somewhat childish to me, and the proportions of the numbers to the circles do not match up well. - When the game is finished, the animations and screen changes move too fast. Again, disrupting the zen minimalism of the app. - The prompt to change levels is no longer nicely centered in the middle of the screen, it is in the lower left corner, disrupting the beautiful symmetry the app used to have. - I dislike the new icon. Bright purple lines and lettering? Too bright, too attention-grabbing. Prior icon was more "minimal". Overall, this still remains a very nice sudoku app. Gameplay works wonderfully. Layout is strong. But what was an outstanding app is now merely a good app with the design changes involved in the new version. Thankfully I still had the old version saved on my computer and I have "downgraded" back to the old version.
The best Sudoku app ever!

This is the best sudoku app I've ever played. The interface is easy to understand and it looks great in iOS 7. The implementation of "pencil marks" is great and it's actually improved my game. I've reached much harder levels and I'm solving them faster. I deleted my other sudoku apps because I only ever play this one. I'm not sure where it gets the stats for the chart at the end of each game, but I like seeing my progress.
Interface=excellent, puzzles...

This is absolutely the best looking and most usable sudoku app I've come across. And I downloaded quite a lot of terrible ones before finding this app. Sadly, at about level 30 these puzzles seem to have no logical way to solve them. I do Will Shortz books of hard sudoku all the time and have no trouble reasoning my way to solutions. But at a certain point with these I just have to pick a cell with only 2 pencil marks and choose one of my options. I've sent screen shots to my engineer/math major husband, and he too is unable to reason his way to a solution for these puzzles. That really takes a lot of the fun out of this app. I would be completely addicted and eager to spend money on the higher difficulties if the puzzles were able to be properly solved without guessing. The other thing I don't like is if I want to play an easy puzzle before bed or something, I then have to redo all the levels of the medium difficulty again.
