Pros and cons of Sudoku: Classic & Variations app for iPhone and iPad

Sudoku: Classic & Variations app good for

Like all the Conceptis Games, this is an excellent logic game! I loved their games already on their website when they just started their online games, and their App games are in no way less entertaining and challenging. Two thumbs up!!!!
I really love the different puzzle options. This is the only one I have seen in the app store with the different options. I just wish the extra puzzles werent so expensive. It would be nice if it was just one price to unlock all the extra puzzles. I guess I will just have to erase the ones that I have already solved.
Works well. No issues with the program. Lots of variety of puzzles.
Great game, great variety of puzzles, it would be nice to see sum and multi puzzles too.
Conceptis is the best logic puzzle site, and the Sudoku app is up to their standard - great puzzles, easy to use interface
Simple to use, great to download, great prices for packages. If you are a fan of any version of sudoku, this app offers everything you need.

Some bad moments

I would give 5 stars if this app would work but it wont update the puzzles so it is pretty much useless.
By far the most intuitive interface for Sudoku that I have encountered. Props to the user interface designer(s).
Wish there were some difficult puzzles, but a good way to pass the time.
The variety of puzzles and the levels are enough to keep me figuring for quite while.
I have used this program for a year and a half. I enjoy being able to hurry through a puzzle by seeing all options for a certain number. It also has a good system for marking small numbers in each square. The program has expanded my sudoku expertise by adding mega puzzles. I didnt think I would get better at this game, but the 16 number puzzles are a fun challenge.
Ive tried numerous sodoku apps, and this is the best one out there. It does not contain gimmicks, such as childish graphics. Instead, it has options that allow you to focus on the logic of the game. It has lots of puzzles for multiple difficulty levels at a reasonable price, and they keep creating more so youll never run out. It is by far the best sodoku app available.
