SudokuFree App windows 10

Windows 8, Windows 10 suddenly becomes awesome when you play Sudoku games and apps on it; that is, of course, if you’re a true afficionado
windows 8 sudoku
Back in the day, when I had a Nokia “dumb” phone, there was one game that I loved more than any: Sudoku. Since then, I’ve tried many Sudoku games, but I couldn’t find the “right one”. Well, now, my search is over. I found the game I was looking for in the Windows 8, Windows 10 apps store.

The app is called Sudoku Free and apart from being a simple Sudoku game, it does not have many features, but it has that something that makes it very entertaining, but at the same time, very challenging. Apart from chess, I believe Sudoku is the best brain game of all.

Impressions of the game

When first starting the game, you have the option to choose one of the three difficulties of the game: easy, normal or hard. When you enter the game, you find the Sudoku board waiting for you. It has a calming design and color scheme, perfect for helping you concentrate. Also, on the side of the board, you can find the 1-9 numbers, which will eventually let you know when you have finished with each of them by turning darker.

Also, you have the ability to take notes in each box. You can write what numbers you think are there, and play out the rest of the game. If one of the numbers in your notes is used on the line or in the square, it will automatically disappear from your notes. You can even use hints if you find yourself in a predicament, but don’t think that you will fool anyone if you use too many because they have a little marker.

Apart from this, the game is pretty straightforward: a regular Sudoku game for Windows 10. Although, for beginners, it’s better to get accustomed to the computer version before moving to pen and paper, because here, when you make an error, the computer will highlight it. But these being said, I’ll make a last recap of the game’s highlights and I’ll let you enjoy a calming (I hope) game of Sudoku.
