I love how considerate the game makers are. Ads can be gone for free. The play is simple and addictive. The rules have some grammar errors, but do explain the game play and also strategy effectively. I love this game and will be looking for more from these makers. A simple change I would appreciate is the ability to highlight a column or row during play, because I struggle with eye sight sometimes and that would make it easier to check to see that my numbers are lined up the way I think. One more - it's difficult to get to the main menu because there isn't a button for it. I also don't see where I can "spend" the points I earn.

It's functionality is limited due to the subpar functionality of the puzzles. It works fine, but I dont want to have to use a pen and paper to do the 6 by 6 and 7 by 7 puzzles. And I sure as hell don't want to have to guess my way there with the separate colors. If I could fill in all possibilities at once in each square, the game would be significantly improved. This is a game on my phone. All the tools needed to solve the puzzles should be in the app. Any sudoku game worth its salt has the function above.

I've never played this game before. So I go to read the how-to-play instructions {rules}. Holy Black Baby Jesus Batman! Is that English?? I'm not a complete moron... But I have no clue what they are saying. Plus, the controls could be better. You have to use your phone's BACK key to get out of each level. Then put in the number of the next lvl you want to play. Could be made easier. I don't care for this app.

Well done. Like that every puzzle only has one solution. Coloring works nice. Feature requests: klik on clues on the side to mark them handled and gray them out. Store /restore a position. Delete all numbers of a specific color. Pencil marks, followed by auto-pencolmarks. Keep up the good work! Small bug. Sometimes,every 10 games or so, the button to change color is stuck on main in mid game. So all new numbers are black only. Restart of the game solves it

Z70%

It is a fun and well made game, very fair and kind (don't want adds or pay, don't pay, which is rare), but I have a bug where as I solve puzzles my points decrease without using hints, which is sad in case I will actually need one. Also, some puzzles repeat (in mirrored, flipped form, I've met the same one 3 times in one day, but it's fair) Edit: -1 star for nasty bug (color button broke, now it doesn't work)

N70%
by N####:

Fun game! Basic app; missing ability to "pencil in" multiple numbers in one cell (would be very useful while working through the more difficult puzzles).

V70%
by V####:

I really like the structure of these puzzles, good level of challenge and time commitment. There's a lot of usability improvements that I've seen in some Kenken and similar games for taking notes on screen. Would be 5 stars with those, but I still play a bunch.

W70%
by W####:

Addictive. I would like too see the ability to list possible values for the advanced problems.

K70%
by K####:

Works like a beta version. Need a 'next' button, not return to main menu, 'next hardest' - most people would like to go from easy to hard.

A great game to kill time.

L70%

My two favorite number puzzles are sudoku and griddlers. This puzzle gives an epic combination of both.

Logic based wonderful game. Please add option to scratch used clues

After you finish a puzzle... Nothing. Should go to next puzzle!

Way to confusing ...instructions made no sence

F70%
by F####:

I love the game, but the controls are unintuivtive. Suggestion: tapping the cell to increment the number would be more user friendly.

Z70%
by Z####:

This game has so many levels, you'll never run out of options. Currently in 600s, and I don't think it'll end!

Z70%
by Z####:

Sparse, clean interface works well for me. Sonetimes wish I could put multiple possible #s in cell (like sudoku) but don't want to clutter the interface.

Z70%
by Z####:

I enjoy the challenge. Very addictive. I hate to put it down. I wish I could save my place when I change phones though. I keep having to start over.

Z70%

Overall a great app and lovely game. I would like to see a 'night' or dark version where the backgroud is dark since I often play at night.

by K####:

Perhaps show current accumulated points somewhere on main screen

C70%
by C####:

Not the best skyscraper game. Needs sudoku-style ability to put multiple small numbers in cells in pencil mode. Non-primary colors (pencil mode) stopped working for me entirely after the first few games.

Fun

Классно!

Two things would earn it 5, "undo" on actual screen instead of menu and a "next game button". Both could fit at bottom. An "X" and "clear X's" to mark obsolete cells would be great as well.

X70%
by X####:

The design is simple and clean. It doesn't need colours, the game is what I'm here for, not fancy, distracting stuff. PS: I keep the ads turned on, simply because you gave me the option to turn them off. You deserve it.

Only thing missing in this great game is pencil marks, which is needed for some of the hard and expert puzzles. Enjoyable app otherwise...

Good game concept, nice reliable simple app, 10/10 and a koala stamp.

For the most part the game play is good. It would be better if it had the ability to do pencil marks.

The menu to undo a nice or get a hint is no longer available after the UI update. Very nice app otherwise.

Why does this app need full network access all of a sudden???
