Description
*** The most popular large format Sudoku puzzle on Android is now available for iPad, iPhone and Windows 10 ***
Samurai Sudoku and 16x16 'Super' Sudoku. For those that want a puzzle that lasts more than a few minutes. And now an unlimited supply of automatically generated 9 x 9 Sudokus for when you want a quick puzzle.
The Samurai and Super Sudokus come in three levels of difficulty, none of them are trivial or easy. These are Sudoku that will take a bit of time to solve. And if you complete one you will have solved it. There are no cheats or hints to allow you to carry on if you get stuck. The 9x9 Sudoku come in four levels of difficulty with the most difficult requiring slightly harder solving techniques than the larger puzzles.
There are aids to help with some of the legwork though, the Sudoku will auto fill and update pencil marks showing all of the possible numbers available in each square and you can highlight all squares that can hold a possible number allowing patterns to be seen. But, there is nothing in the Sudoku to shortcut the mental process required to complete it.
The list of Sudoku now shows whether automatic pencil marks or number highlighting have been used and the best time for each Sudoku will reflect this, if you complete a Sudoku without using assistance this will be recorded as your best even if it was slower than a previous attempt where assistance was used.
The Sudoku auto save so you can have several on the go at any time.
Also for traditionalists or the masochistic you can email a Sudoku to your computer to be printed out and solved the hard way with no highlighting assistance using a pen and paper.
Because of the size of the Sudoku this app will work best on a tablet or large screen phone. However, the grid can be zoomed so play on almost any device should be possible with a pit of patience.

★★★★★
I love sudoku, but the regular 9×9 puzzles get kinds of boring after a while. This takes care of that! This is the best sudoku app I have ever found. It never gets old. 5☆
★★★★★
Brilliant sudoku app, whether its straightforward 9x9 grids up to 16x16 grids. Everything is so easy for you & you can even put your own puzzles in.
★★★★★
Used to buy suduko books often, but no longer have to. Like how there's free Suzukis to play, but I also don't mind having to purchase more as it's just as much as buying a book to complete. Love there are no ads as well. Downfall is the normal version of suduko on this app isn't great.
★★★★★
I started doing the biggies 16x16, 25x25, etc...offered a good challenge for a while.
★★☆☆☆
I used to have this on my old phone, I had to upgrade my phone and now the pencil marks are unreadable and all the packs I bought are gone.
★★☆☆☆
Can adjust size of pencil marks on first game but afterward it resets and can't adjust pencil markings after the first initial game. Please fix
★★☆☆☆
Pencil marks don't work for letters, only for numbers. No hints. Check accuracy only works a couple of times and after that not. Not suitable for devices under 10" screen size. Shame because I love sudoku, but this type is better suited for paper and pen.
