Sudokuro

Dissappointing. Missing an essential feature to be a complete Sudoku Game.

Frankly I expected more from a Sudoku game. Of course the ability to generate random puzzle is nice. But one essential feature is missing (or if it's present, it's well hidden): it's the ability to write possibilities in each Sudoku square (like you have in Go Sudoku! for the PSP).

Most Sudoku game on PC and Pocket PC have this feature. When I do a Sudoku in a newspaper, I write possibilities in each square to facilitate research. True, the DS screen is not high resolution and does not allow programmers to put a lot of small detail on the screen, but I think a Sudoku game missing this feature is not worth it.

Entering numbers is easy, graphics are not bad, and music can be turned off. But a good Sudoku game is based on it's gameplay, not it's presentation, and for the moment, it's lacking a very important feature. So I'll stay with the newspaper Sudoku for the moment.

  After playing the Brain Age and and Sudoku Gridmaster games, it is hard to go back to a system where you can't easily touch a number and place it in the box. Sudokuro doesn't allow it and the entry method is by the D-pa... Read Full Review
