About this game

Sven's SudokuPad finally lets you play your own Sudoku puzzles in the same app as used by Cracking the Cryptic in their videos. Created by Sven, the same developer who has created and improved the Cracking The Cryptic Sudoku webapp over the past year.

It also includes a few brand new classic Sudokus created by Simon and Mark exclusively for Sven's SudokuPad.

Ratings and reviews

When you update you lose all your previous puzzles and progress. Importing from the link in the web page is now broken. Imposingly to copy/paste the link because when you go to import, the app disables the paste functionality on your keyboard. So basically everything is broken and it's impossible to load any puzzles. I can't believe I paid for this app.

Great pc app, but the mobile port is way too buggy rn. Don't buy until it gets fixed. I cant import puzzles anymore even after reinstalling. Also accidentally swiping on the screen edge of the screen with the new android update caused you to go "back" to the home screen, and when you resume the puzzle there are some random squares with all the numbers and some colors penciled in. I re-downloaded this after a year or so and ran into both of these issues within an hour.

Love having an app to play CTC content. Been having reoccurring issues after loading a lot of puzzles (I'd imagine 80+): 1, when trying to load in a new puzzle from a link, it will show the "received a puzzle" popup, click save, the popup shows up again, and clicking save results "overwrite existing" popup. 2, after finishing a puzzle, returning to puzzles list results in white screen. Must restart app, and doesn't always save puzzle progress. Must delete old puzzles to restore app usage.

What's new

The long-awaited update that brings in all the new features of the web app I've developed over the last two years! This is the "feature-parity" update you've all been asking about!
