Killer Sudoku - Brain Games for Negative User Reviews
✓ Too many ads!The more you play the more ads you get - to the point it’s not fun to play. I was ready to buy the version without ads but it was subscription based - which I hate! - and overpriced for what is a pretty basic app..Version: 1.11.1
✓ Pay for ad free but get adsI pay for an annual subscription to have an ad-free experience but get ads each time I start the game. It is difficult to get past these ads and play the game. Also, the puzzles seem to be limited. I have played this game so often that I have memorized some of the solutions. Probably will not renew the subscription and move on to some other game. Addendum: the ad at the start if the game finally locked me out. Unless I accepted their new game app I could not access the Soduku game. I am now out and have canceled my subscription. DO NOT PAY FOR THIS GAME..Version: 1.16.1
✓ Frustrating performanceLove the game but the lack of control over the ad performance makes this unpleasant! No problem with seeing ads as long as they go away after you click on the x. Frequency is an issue as the ads pop up in too many places. Most annoying are ad montages from Outbrain. None of the subjects appeal to me and the headlines are very misleading. Like being forced to read the gossip/trash news rages at a supermarket checkout line. Then you try to close out and it jumps to the internet. Just lacking in good programming I guess. I have submitted suggestions etc. and left my contact info on several occasions to no avail. Poor customer support if you ask me..Version: 2.0.0
✓ DeletedNew update gave ads every few minutes.Version: 1.11.1
✓ No ads availableI got this app because I enjoy sudoku and had so much trouble with a previous app that I deleted it. Now I find that this app also contains way too many ads and the cost to remove them is totally insane. Another problem is when you choose to use a hint you must sit through another ad however you will more often get a message over and over that no ads are available and thus no hint. My frustration level has overloaded and I am going to delete this app..Version: 1.10.1
✓ Everything disappearedI have been playing this game a long time. Until recently, I really liked it. Then, all of a sudden, all my data disappeared. Years of stats, hundreds of free hints, and many tickets to play are all gone. I sent a note advising them what had happened but have not heard back. If this doesn’t get remedied, I can’t play a game that Judy clears everything out and make you start over..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Ad-freeI’ve been playing Killer Sudoku for some years and love it. I purchased 12 months ad free for the cost of $26.49 this year. Since then, I’ve bought a new iPad and am now inundated with ads again. My subscription ends on 21/06/2023. I’m not sure that I downloaded the correct app onto My new iPad but I’ve tried them all. My subscription says Killer Sukoku - Brain Games. Please help..Version: 1.14.4
✓ Why change a good thing?It use to be better when it indicated best time, now it shows best time of the week which resets every week and we lose our best time overall. If you want best time of the week just add that feature but keep best time overall..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Betting adsI really loved this free game when I got it a few months but for the past month I’ve been really annoyed that regardless of where I click on the squares (DEFINITELY NOT IN THE AD BAR) it sends me to sky betting and bet365 regularly at least three times in a row??? Ngl I’m not a gambling addict but if I was I would find it extremely difficult to play this game as it constantly send me to gambling apps?? Advertise it in the bar, but don’t force me to the App Store when I didn’t knowingly press on an add for gambling - please fix this.Version: 1.11.3
✓ Latest updateYour latest update has done something funny. There are Japanese or Chinese symbols all over the place. I deleted your app for fear of a hack..Version: 1.12.0
✓ BattleBattle version is great- until it locks up, which is frequently. The ads are also getting more annoying - and like others have said, that little x which you can never hit without it going to another screen. Time to find a different app…..the developers of this one obviously don’t seem interested in addressing the issues.Version: 1.10.8
✓ Too many ads and data deletedI enjoy the game and the user interface is great. However there are way too many ads. There’s a fine line between the company getting something from a free product and asking too much of users and this crosses the line. An ad 3/4/5/6 times a game is insane. Starting, ending and if you get something wrong. In addition to this, my data was randomly deleted and I’d no way of recovering this. Not great..Version: 2.1.6
✓ Missing numbersHi Was really enjoying this game until the last 2 days daily puzzle - they have no starting numbers - I have not ever seen a sudoku puzzle with no starting numbers to work off Please fix this issue.Version: 1.3.8
✓ Events and historyI just don’t understand why aren’t you guys answering any of the most recent reviews. It looks like everyone is complaining about the same issue that with the game is losing our data. It’s really make me upset because you don’t have reviewers on here recently that’s complains about the game itself. I think we all enjoy the game because if we didn’t we wouldn’t be worried about the history but we have so much of it we want it back. You also have some us that lost all our hints that we had, the Independence Day event is gone, all of the daily challenge for the month is gone, I mean it literally makes us go to the very beginning and losing absolutely everything. This is so upsetting and how you are ignoring us makes it even worst..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Was enjoying until complete erasure of all my progress.Was finding it quite stimulating, then it completely erased my progress and landed me back at absolute beginning. I had over 500 credits for hints and 400+ free battle tickets. All the daily puzzles had been completed back as far as I could go..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Ads! Ads! Ads!Every update sees more and longer ads..Version: 1.16.1
✓ Hugh JarsedFar too many adverts!!.Version: 1.3.7
✓ Too many adsI’ve played and enjoyed this game for a long time. I understand the need for ads but it is ridiculous that the ads have jumped from 1 or 2 to as much as 5 during one set. Now, the ads are messing up the game because they freeze and you can’t get back to the game. Today, I found the game I finished yesterday had to be done over. It looks like I will have to do today’s game over again tomorrow. One more mess up will cause me to delete the game and move on..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Ads cause bugsToo many different frustrating bugs which cause the app to crash, freeze or be unresponsive.Version: 1.10.14
✓ Latest update has wiped all my progressIt was already getting unplayably ad heavy, but now I open to “new terms and conditions “ and after clicking ok, find my progress is back to zero! Nowhere to ask for help resolving issue. I’ve had enough. Deleted..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Keeps crashingI can’t get through a whole round of any of the daily challenges without the app freezing and then crashing. When it does crash it saves none of my progress and I have to start over unless I force the app shut mid game for no reason while it’s still working. If by some miracle I get to the end, another ad will cause the app to freeze, then crash again, and I’m rewarded with a brand new puzzle for the day with no record of the one I just beat..Version: 1.12.1
✓ Death by advertisingI understand the need for ads. But these are INSANELY LONG!!! I can handle 10-15 seconds but 30-45 before and after games? I considered buying out of the ads, but I’m not paying $16 per year. This is not the only game I play so I can tell you it’s waaaaaay out of line. The 3 star rating is an average: 5 stars for the game (it’s FABULOUS). 0 stars for the highway robbery by ads..Version: 1.7.1
✓ App changeYou changed the game & all my finished games etc.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Too many adsI used to love this game. But the latest version has too many ads and you don’t even get the option to pay for them. Such a shame I won’t be playing it anymore..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Don’t like being timedDon’t like being timed.Version: 1.10.8
✓ Spoiled by greedFar to many interruptions advertising other apps etc, you loose concentration and the thread of the game.Version: 1.15.3
✓ Free hintsThe connection for free hints has not been working for two days now. Please fix it.Version: 1.10.14
✓ Latest version is a disasterScreen is covered with Chinese script. Unplayable!!.Version: 1.12.0
✓ It Drives me CrazyI have loved playing this game until the last few weeks. The app freezes up every few seconds or goes to a black screen. I then have to restart the game and everything I’ve entered is lost. I have played one of the daily challenges 5 times because it starts all over. Also, the daily challenge game is not prefilled and I have to wait a couple of days to play it. Please fix these “bugs”, I would hate to play a different Killer Sudoku app. Thank you..Version: 1.12.11
✓ Too many (fake) ads and hangsThis app is intentionally made to annoy the users into paying,lol. Too many ads that obviously look made up and fake and bordering on criminal and illegal activity/products. And ads from Black Friday sales, lol. The hangs are I think due to app downloading video ads that run seems like forever that cannot be skipped. Come on, have some class, remove the annoying ads, and your app will sell itself on its on merit. I would pay if the app didn’t show all the questionable and tasteless obviously made up fake ads..Version: 1.6.0
✓ BattleThe Battle mode has the potential to be great, but has a couple of major issues. First is the ads: you get an ad before each match, but they are all different lengths. There’s been many times where I’ve finished my ad and my opponent had a shorter ad and placed 5-10 pieces before I could even see the board. The second issue is the matchmaking. I’m usually getting 3 times more wins than losses, because I’m getting put against people who seem to have never touched the game before. Despite these issues, I believe the battle mode has some great potential and hope that the devs see this feedback..Version: 1.10.2
✓ AdvertisementsThis was such a great game until you got greedy. 😪😪😪.Version: 1.12.5
✓ Game logged me outOpened up the app this am to find that I had been logged out and lost all my progress & stats for the last several YEARS. Not able to find the gaming log in; only FB, Google, or Apple. I’ve been struggling with keeping this game anyway because of the number of body shaming ads I have to see so frequently between games. So I guess this is it. Not worth my time anymore. Deleting today.Version: 2.0.9
✓ KillerIt’s a killer, because you are only 3 mistakes, which means fat fingers on the phone make it much harder. VG game on hard/killer.Version: 1.4.0
✓ NoiseProblem with noisy advertising!!!!!!.Version: 1.12.1
✓ Data GoneI also have been playing this game for a long time and a few days ago all my past historic data was completely wiped out. Not good enough. Probably the end for me, I will find another game.Version: 2.1.0
✓ Great game, Deceptive adsI love the game and been playing for close to a year. Today I got an add that uses the official Apple setting icon and makes it look like an official Apple notification informing me my memory is full (which it is not) and informs me I have to minutes to correct this issue or my contact and photos will be deleted and my SIM card damaged. The only way to prevent this is to click “clean memory” which will take me to the App Store, download the app and run it. This type of ad is misleading and deceptive. Although I didn’t fall for it, there are those who may and I would never trust an app that has to lie to get me to use it. This ad is on the same level as phone scammers and seems like something they would do..Version: 1.12.8
✓ Adverts have broken this appI usually love this game and play loads, but unfortunately the ads recently have made it almost unplayable as it constantly hangs. Pity about that. Will find a new platform for this game..Version: 1.11.1
✓ BrokenThe game WAS excellent but recently has become unplayable. Think it is ad related. When playing and the ad changes along bottom of screen the game response either slows to a crawl or completely freezes meaning a reboot of the app and all progress lost. FYI playing on iPad 2020.Version: 1.12.11
✓ Was good ,not now.Too many bugs. Not all of the game comes up. Freezes often . Most times can’t get the ads to go. Keep opening up. Can’t play the daily. Just doesn’t all print on screen. No numbers etc. Can’t see any comments on the other reviews from you so an improvement of the game would be questionable. Time to delete….again..Version: 2.0.8
✓ All my work is goneI sent in a request a week ago and have not heard back. I presume it has to do with your last update. I am now reset back to day 1. All my achievements, tickets, stats…everything are gone. Deeply disappointed that you did not reply to my request. Will you fix this or will I go elsewhere? Months and months of play gone..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Annoying MusicI have been playing Killer Sudoku daily for months. Suddenly there is annoying background music while playing and there is no way to turn it off. I can use the volume and turn it down to zero, but that also turns down the other sound effects. Please fix this quickly or I will be ending my subscription. (There also seems to be no way to contact the developer, hence the one-star review.).Version: 1.10.0
✓ Lost all statsSame as Deltaspeak, lost all statistics and cannot contact developers. Had paid for premium. Had loved the games too, but feel cheated now..Version: 2.0.9
✓ I’ve lost all of my statsI’ve played and enjoyed this game for several years. Recently, a screen popped up with 3 different statements. I could not exit out of this screen and had no choice but to respond to one of the statements. The third statement read something like: I play killer sudoko, (this is what I checked). After that my level went back to number One and all of my stats were gone! I would like back what I have worked so hard to achieve! Thanks.Version: 2.1.0
✓ I was robbed.Playing the Auutumn challenge, had completed phases 1 & 2, and had 12 puzzles left to play on phase 3. While playing game 52/64 the screen froze on a Free Cell Solitaire ad. It wouldn’t move. Clock wouldn't wind down. It just sat there! So I exited, turned off my iPad and rebooted it. When I got back into Killer Sudoku it had wiped out the 52 completed games and set me up to play game 1/64. With only 1 day and 4 hours left in the challenge there is no way I will complete the level, thus ruining my completion score. I am very disappointed in the game. I had just downloaded the newest version of the game yesterday. So, I am not a happy player right now. F. Harless.Version: 2.1.6
✓ Love this game but the current version is buggy and drains batteriesI’ve spent hundreds of hours playing this game. The problem with this version is that it heats up and drains the battery on my new iPad. Also, there seems to be a memory leak which causes the game to become unresponsive after a while. Something makes me think that the problem might be related to all of the ads that are constantly cycling through this game. Please fix it so that I can give your game a four or five star rating..Version: 1.12.11
✓ Too many adsLove the puzzles but the ads really ruin it for me, you get an ad just for starting the app, an ad when you start a game, when you end a game, when you return from pause and such a lot of the ads you can’t closedown for 30 seconds and even then quite a lot of the time you can’t get them to close, you end up in a repeating loop between safari and the App Store - so disappointing.Version: 1.16.1
✓ …Absolutely no way you just reset my 400 win streak.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Was great but now freezes iPhoneWas great, but recently has started freezing the iPhone. It starts to lag, then becomes unplayable, then locks up the iPhone until you force kill the app. Shame. Will try another version of sudoku..Version: 1.12.10
✓ Only want hard versionsWould be nice to have the option of being able to choose the level of difficulty for the daily challenges as I only bother doing the hard versions (which I don’t always manage but the other levels of difficulty are too easy for me) and sometimes the level of difficulty is not hard for several days in a row.Version: 1.13.1
✓ Nearly Unplayable Right NowI’ve enjoyed this game. It’s worked well. There are ads but they have never been unfair. That’s why I gave it 3 stars, because right now it’s not even worth one. For the last few days the game can’t stay active for more than 3-4 seconds (literally) at a time without brief freezes. It will run for a couple of seconds, then hang for a few, then come on for a couple, then hang again. The only way you can play it is by watching the timer and putting in a couple of numbers quickly when it runs, then stopping when it freezes again. Needless to say, this is not sustainable. There are a lot of Killer Sudoku games in the App Store. If this doesn’t sort out very soon, I’ll just delete this one and switch to another. That’s how I got this one in the first place, because the one I was using previously started running ads in the middle of a game..Version: 1.12.10
✓ All progress deletedThere must have been a recent update which has rendered my previous progress obsolete which I find highly frustrating. The ads are quite annoying so I won’t be playing this again..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Fun but glitchyI enjoy this game a lot, and I was psyched when the “battle” feature appeared yesterday, but I’m very frustrated by the fact that I open the game after being away from my device and find that I have “lost” several battles and my tickets for continue playing have been spent. I also appear to both lose AND win a battle now and then, and my statistics show both results recorded. Not sure how long I will stay with it under the circumstances, which is a bummer because I enjoy the game a lot when it’s working properly..Version: 1.5.2
✓ SO MANY ADSI don’t think it’s always been this way, but recently there are soooo many ads. There is one before and after every single game. So you get an ad after you finish a game, and then as soon as you start another game there’s another ad, 2 in a row. Some of them are 30 seconds long and cannot be skipped. And now it’s a recurring payment to get rid of ads not even a one time payment? Super annoying especially when moving through games quickly..Version: 2.1.6
✓ A rose by any other name is still ….I upgraded for no ads. Enjoyed the variety. Now there are prizes. It doesn’t matter the name. I paid to avoid the ads. I want a refund. You can’t avoid the “prizes” which is another name for the ads I paid to avoid. I no longer play and will be removing it from my phone..Version: 1.11.1
✓ Good..butAll my history of play has disappeared. Not happy!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Was good , now uselessIt was a grate game.. unfortunately now you waste more time on watching ads and waiting for ads to time out , if they don’t go into endless loops .. It is pathetic how you watch an ad and then when you try to do another games, Lo and behold you need to watch ANOTHER AD‼️‼️‼️‼️.Version: 1.13.1
✓ Lost two years of hintsToday I opened the app to play and noticed I lost nearly 1800 hints I had earned. Many of these earned by watching 30 second videos. All of my statistics were also gone. Now after years of playing my daily challenges are all “Easy” because it assumes I’m a new player. Your advertisers need to be aware customer will no longer need to watch 30 second commercials if points are taken from them. PLEASE PEOPLE DON’T WATCH THE 30 SECOND ADS FOR EXTRA POINTS. MAYBE ADVERTISERS WILL ABANDON THIS APP AND FORCE DEVELOPERS TO ADDRESS CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS..Version: 2.1.1
✓ The dreaded timer!I’m not sure why buy you only get 15 minutes to finish a game, it’s Personally not for me.Version: 1.13.1
✓ I’m missing all my stats!!I’ve been playing this game daily for over a year and when I opened it up today, all my history and game stats are gone. It is as if I’ve never played. Not sure what happened if it was an upgrade to the software but that is very disappointing..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Streak statsI like this game but it’s totally infuriating that your winning streak doesn’t carry over to the next day. There can’t be many folk who can or will do 15 puzzles in a day..Version: 1.16.0
✓ Too many AdsToo many totally irrelevant adverts.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Disappointed!!!I’ve played this for years and most of the ads are tolerable. But now you’re asking questions which your ludicrous as I am playing the game and I am sure your tracking records show that fact. Why ask if I’ve played sudoku… classic sudoku… killer sudoku… and NOT provide a way to exit to the game if I don’t want to answer stupid questions or possible invasion of privacy down the road just so I can play your game. I’ll check from time to time and if you persist with this course of action than you’ll get no ad revenue from me..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Latest update made game unplayableI updated my game and now have a banner in another language covering the numbers so that I am unable to select them! Really disappointed ☹️.Version: 1.12.0
✓ Too many addsThis game used to be great but there are now way too many adds so have stopped playing..Version: 2.0.9
✓ FreezesWas enjoying this. Reacher expert,killer 3 but now it’s hopeless as it keeps freezing on ad and you can’t get rid of it.Version: 1.10.12
✓ Reduced enjoymentHaving played this app for some time, at various levels of difficulty, the daily challenge for the last week or so has been 'hard' that's no numbers to start with. The occasional hard daily challenge is good, but not every time!.Version: 1.10.0
✓ AngryI have been playing killer sudoku for over a year. I play every night and had over 500 hint points and a high score for playing. All of a sudden I started back at zero hint points and zero score and my previous daily games were wiped out. I have to start all over again and watch the crummy minute long apps for months to get those hint points back. I think it’s better off not playing due to anger and frustration..Version: 2.0.9
