Broken.

This game is what we call "broken." Sudoku only works properly if each puzzle has a single, unique solution, and the player can find that solution based on the puzzle presented. Sudoku Mania is broken because its puzzles do not have unique solutions. To add insult to injury, the interface is pretty awful, too.

This was part of a birthday gift for a friend who loves sudoku. In fact, he loves is so much, he wears down the batteries on his Nintendo since gets so involved with it.

You'd have more fun just tossing $20.00 out the window. At least the person who found your $20 would be happy.

NOT like the others

Sudoku Mania is the WORST DS game I've ever played, and the WORST sudoku game I've ever played, and I've played a LOT. I wish I had read these reviews BEFORE I purchased the game. I've learned my lesson! I absolutely DO NOT recommend you buy this game. It's quite difficult to maneuver around the game board. Don't buy it.

Terrible game...don't buy it!

I can only add to the reviews and agree that this is the worst Sudoku game I have ever seen. A total waste of money. Read all the other reviews to find out why.
Don't buy it!

This was the worst Sudoku game I have ever used. Hard to use with no provisions for penciling in possibilities. I would have rated it zero but wasn't able to.

I agree with everyone...LOUSY game

I too am an avid Sudoku fan and was quite upset to learn I am not even able to return this item to the store I bought it at...I even called UFO. They only do the manuals and have nothing to do with programming. The guy thinks that the company that designed it is in the UK, I guess the British do not play Sudoku. But I concur with everyone's thoughts...there is no way that you can solve these puzzles without having the ability to "pencil" in all numeric possibilities and yes I found that the font made it difficult to distinguish between certain numbers. I am glad I did get it on sale for 10 bucks..but no wonder why it was reduced in price at the store from 19.99.

Very Poor Sudoku Implementation

The controls are poorly thought out, the fonts are difficult to read, and the puzzles don't always have unique solutions. I only paid $10 for it, and that was too much.

Sudoku without touch screen input

If you've played the Sudoku included with the game "Brain Age" then you won't like this game. There is barely any input you do with the stylus on this game. What's more is that the quality of the image is also grainy. There are several themes and layouts you can choose from, however. Each theme is random and overtly colorful. The programmers didn't make good use of the screen realestate and the buttons you 'can' tap are fairly small. There is no character recognition like in Brain Age making inputting your choice a bit easier if you can aim well. I would have to agree with other reviews of this game. This game is poor. Do yourself a favor and don't buy the game. I'm still looking for a Sudoku game as good as the one in Brain age. This certainly isn't it.

I wish I would've read these reviews

If you're thinking of buying this game, STOP NOW! I didn't look at any reviews until I bought, got it, played it for about 3 minutes and realized that it is, in fact, the worst game ever made. I, like a few others, bought this game because I had solved all the puzzles on Brain Age. It was nothing like Brain Age. My bad. I want my money back. Amazon should not even sell this game anymore and offer a partial refund to all that have been duped into buying it on here.
