This is what the reviewers think:
"I really like the formula that KENKEN invented, and Yukendo Pro takes it one step further in terms of difficulty. You also get global highscores, and Facebook connect to add gamelife"
- touchgen.net

yukendo offers different difficulty levels for both beginners and advanced puzzlers. Whether you have never played a similar game before, or have been playing Sudoku for years, you will find the right challenge.
With different level sizes you can play a short game on your way to work or a full afternoon. You can't finish a puzzle in one go? No problem - your game get's automatically saved. If you are stuck, save your game, try an easier one and come back to it later.
With local and global highscores, you can compete with your friends and the whole world.

It is also a great way to learn mathematics. In fact the game has been invented by Tetsuya Miyamoto to teach his pupils maths. He called it KenKen which means “cleverness squared” in Japanese.

Follow these easy rules and get hooked in minutes:
1. Fill the grid with digits - 1 through 4 for a 4x4 grid, 1 through 5 for a 5x5, etc.
2. Every digit may only occur once per row and column.
3. The grid is also divided into cells - the numbers of each cell must produce a certain “target” number when combined using a specified mathematical operation (either addition, subtraction, multiplication or division).

Every grid of yukendo has at least one solution.

yukendo is free and offers many hours of fun. However, if you are an advanced player and want to get the full experience, get yukendo pro!

Very poor
=j

No way to make notes. Limited selection of puzzles.


Just like kenken
AlextheDeity

I love kenken, and this app gives you just that. The only thing that's missing is the ability to put notes for possible numbers, and the reason it only has a limited number of puzzles is because it's the FREE version. Nice look and playability


Did not like!
Karensep

It would not allow me to make the selection of numbers... It freezes up but the time keeps running! Huge bug needs to be fixed!!!


Wow
Izzyboy7

This is really fun, but maybe make a simpler explaination


What is *

I can't tell why they put the star instead of whatever it's supposed to be!!!


I ran out of puzzles really quickly
BradicusPrime

The layout was fine and easy to use, and the puzzles themsemves were good. But there were only a dozen or so puzzles so after a few on each difficulty, they'd repeat. :-/


Go "Pro" :-)

Limited amount of puzzles, but there were enough to "hook me." Fun. Challenging. It works great!!


Yukendo

Didn't like how you can't mark choices or erase individual cells. Going to get a different version of this game.


No notes?
m.a.t.h.

I like this game and this app, but what turns me off about it is the inability to make notes of the possible numbers that could go in the cells. Also I would like to have the option to play with the timer turned off.


Great job

Thy did a good job on this app. Except they need a not function and a clear function. Clear can be typing in the same number button twice. Do the numbers toggle
