Features

The features of the latest version of Pocket Sudoku

  • Generate puzzles using six different difficulty levels
    The next puzzle is generated while you're playing the current one. Therefore, you don't have to wait when starting a new puzzle.
  • Solve puzzles
    The application can solve any valid puzzle by using the Brute force algorithm, and most puzzles by using the Intelligent algorithm.
  • Pencil marks
    Support for both automatic, semi-automatic and manual pencil marks.
  • Hints
    Get help when you've got stuck by using our intelligent hints-feature.
  • Colour Solving
    You have four different colours at your supply.
  • Symmetry
    Symmetrical number placement makes the puzzles more attractive.
  • Diagonals
    Add another dimension by using both the diagonals in the same way as any row or column.
