This has potential, but as it currently stands, I found it unusable. Once you enter a number, there isn't a way to change it (that I could find) without clearing the whole puzzle. They may have done this thinking that you're supposed to use logic to figure everything out and only enter once you know it for sure, but mistakes happen. Especially with the input method, which I found to be less than intuitive. You have to enter a number, then choose where you want it to go. Especially on a smaller screen, its very possible to click the wrong place. To me anyway, the input method of of the sudoku program I have is much better - you click on a square to select and enter it, with the option to clear it. A more minor issue is I think it should ask you if you are sure before revealing the puzzle when you click the solve button in case you clicked it by mistake. If they fixed these issues, I think it would be a good basic hidato program, but as it stands, I'm not going to waste time playing something where if I make a mistake I have to start all over.
I noticed that half way through a puzzle I will stary to get that finger shaking and will tell me I can't put a number on a blank spot (and the number hasn't been played) also dont like how it doesnt save your game and if you click on the rules or have to get out of it, you have to start the puzzle over. Crashed twice so far.
Dev has good intentions and the basics are right but it doesn't save games, frequently refuses to let you place the number (correct or incorrect).in an open spot and THE HAND, the hand is distracting and annoying! The development ream has a bit of tweaking to do but.even as it is IT'S THE ONLY REAL HIDATO on the Google market.
