Only quibble is that the symbol and irregular puzzle types should be available outside the daily challenge section.

I've been waiting for something like this, with the achievements for xbox. I enjoy the daily challenges and the irregular houses. The game is running smoothly. There are some ads but it's ok. Although, the game makes make surface pro running a bit hot, else i'd give it 5 star.

I am a big Sudoku fan and truly enjoy this game. The interface looks and operates great with minimal advertisements. It is a whole new experience, with my Surface Pro 3, that I can write in the numbers with my Surface pen.
----
Difficulty:
There are five levels of difficulty; very easy, easy, medium, hard, and expert. The game comes equipped with guided help if you want to use it, but the expert level truly isn't that difficult. It could use a bit of a booster or a more difficult level added.
There are also daily challenges that are enjoyable. They feature different style game modes that are pretty fun, but again not too difficult.
----
Achievements:
I am an Xbox gamer and enjoy working towards completing achievements. It adds depth and challenges to the game. About half the achievements are pretty simple and will be earned almost automatically from normal game play. Then there are a couple that are pretty challenging and others that just require game time or actual time to accrue.

Exactly what one would expect from the Windows 8 Generation of Microsoft games apps. Right up the ally of Microsoft Solitaire, Microsoft Mahjong, etc.

El entretenimiento de los 90's lo daban versiones muy simples de estos juegos que ahora dejan ver la belleza de la evolución, Excelente y genial como todos los juegos de Microsoft y Arkadium que hay en Windows 8.1

I just got an i7 Surface Pro 3, and this game causes it to run hot. It is the same with all of these MS games ... Whatever game engine they're using, they need to change it! Otherwise, the game is fine. I just wish it wouldn't burn through my battery.

This could be a nice unfortunately it consumes all the available CPU to the point of making my surface pro really hot.
27 June 2014
Like all of these Microsoft-branded games in the Windows Store, it's a little more resource intensive and slow than a game like this should be (using a Surface Pro 2). Expert is a little easier than I'd like. Finally, it has a little bit of trouble recognizing my written 5s, where the OS in general has no problem whatsoever elsewhere (such as the tablet input panel). Otherwise, it's great.

I wish there was a fiendish mode

This Sudoku has everything to be the best game around, except that it is so easy, even the expert game presents no challenge. I can do them even without notes.
7 July 2014
Love the game and the board options but expert is more like medium. Not very challenging.
7 July 2014
Could really do with more challenging challenges
5 July 2014
Going back to the app main screen takes ages.
Sometimes crashes when loading saved games or highlights rows/columns.
Overall- bad experience due to low performance.
28 July 2015
I have had this app several months and it is one of my favorites...especially the DailyvChallenge. Now today after 28 days of working hard to get a perfect score and only 3 days left ALL of my scores disappeared! Not fair!
16 April 2015
Well designed and executed. Very nice!!
25 January 2015
Expert is far too easy.
4 January 2015
UPDATE: I've played it for six months now - I really enjoy it. But I wish there were more games each day. Couldn't we have a "solve the whole board"?
I'm surprised that I've won every game. There's some challenge - also there are no "regular" Sudoku games. That's kind of disappointing.

Very glitchy. I will click a square that is definitely the correct answer, it will mark it as a mistake, and then when I click it again it marks it correct. The puzzles are fun and would be a great app if these glitches are fixed
28 October 2014
There is no way to select the symbol board while playing a non challenge Game!!!
15 October 2014
Too easy. I don't need to use the note to solve expert problem. Too slow. You can take highest score with cheat/hint function. It should not be counted for ranking.
7 October 2014
This app is a major resource hog and brings out the worst in my tablet. Even now writing this review with sudoku sidepaned i feel the heat coming
27 September 2014
Would like to have irregular and symbol puzzles to solve outside of the daily challenges.
1 September 2014
There is no reason for this game to use all available CPU when running, watched it several times chew 70+% CPU it also kills battery time for mobile use and makes it unsuitable for those who travel.
30 August 2014
I tap a 4, then tap a tile and a 1 is placed there. Like most things Microsoft, it behaves badly, as though trying to irritate user.
30 August 2014
Lots of extra games, pen support is fantastic and makes the game feel "REAL". I'm giving it 3 star in hopes the developers read this and fix the high CPU issue.
15 August 2014
Nice game until it started crashing. tried to reinstall now will not work at all
27 July 2014
The game itself is cool. However, the app seems to utilize a lot of CPU resources and makes my surface pro 3 run hot. This app really needs to be optimized.
27 July 2014
Would be nice if the hard was harder
still too easy
25 July 2014
It is fun but to easy. I wish expert was a little more challenging.
