Sven's SudokuPad

The preview video is extremely misleading, and the footage it shows is not related to this app that costs money. Instead it's showing footage of puzzles played on the entirely free web version. This app it essentially a totally stripped down imitation of the web version, and hasn't had any update in over 3 years. At best it's a pointless disappointment, at worst it's a terrible cash grab scam. Save your money, play in the web app.

Got spoiled on a fog of war puzzle when I loaded it into the app because the Steam (and Android and probably iOS) versions are missing features that are present in the web app. I'm disappointed about all of the advertising that pushed me toward paying for the app to support ongoing development only to discover that what I paid for doesn't even reflect the experience featured in the advertisement in the first place!

Waste of money. Totally outdated from the web app. Made the mistake of not reading the reviews before buying. No way to share or organize puzzles you made, nor any good way to import puzzles.

The free web version keeps getting updates while this paid version seems to be abandoned. Save yourself some money and use the free version

Its a shame that this is the paid verson of this app, as it is far inferior to the free web-version. I got in to logic puzzles trough Cracking the Cryptic on YT and i was under the impression that i was buying a more advanced version of the app. Alot of puzzles does not work. That does not seem to be the case. Untill there has been some updated to the steam version i do not recommend buying it. Here are a cople of things that was inferior to the webversion; No "fog" in "fog-puzzles", less color options, tiny rule-box (and sometimes no rules at all). Hope it gets fixed as i love the idea.

Sadly as others say, free web app sudokupad.app is much better. Sven Neumann, please update the app to match the web version or delete it from steam entirely.

I found CTC's youtube channel the other day and enjoyed playing the variant sudokus from the videos. I downloaded this game to find that my expectations were not met. There's barely any puzzles by default, and only classic sudoku puzzles seem to be supported. There's reviews from the game's release asking for variant sudoku support, and 2.5 years later it seems those requests are still not fulfilled. I will be sticking to the web version going forward, but I hope that this app can receive more support in the future.

致想要使用这个软件的中文玩家： 快跑！steam版已经若干年没更新了，和你看到的那些up主玩的不是一个版本！ 快去用web版！steam版不支持划线、迷雾、检查草稿等诸多内容，是一个超级阉割版。 而且网页版是免费的，导入做题也更方便（直接用链接访问即可）。 纯粹是骗钱的。

Don't get this app. The web version of Sven's Sudokupad is great, and continuously updated with more features and made compatible with new puzzle types. The steam app, on the other hand, is outdated and useless. Don't waste your money, use the website.

I use the mobile app version and it's great. Web version also great. This version? Abandoned, missing features of the other versions, and buggy. I hate leaving a negative review since I like the other versions, but do not waste your time or money with this one. Use the web version instead, or the mobile app.
