What players say
Players praise the huge variety of sudoku variants and the high-quality, hand-crafted puzzles tied to the Cracking the Cryptic YouTube channel. Many note the puzzles lean harder as you progress, and while hints are often useful, some find them inconsistent or missing logical steps. The base game offers free puzzles, but most content requires cheap DLC packs.
