4.0 out of 5 stars For Addicts Only!, February 8, 2006

WOW! Imagine having 100,000 Sudoku books in your pocket! With that many puzzles, you don't have to scrounge the stores for puzzle books. I loved mine. It went everywhere since it's so portable, and it even comes with an extra stylus.

THe problems... It would be much better with a backlight. You need to sit near light, and the light adjuster doesn't really help a lot. I gave it a four star for durability. I ran over it in my wheelchair, and cracked the screen, so I'm needing to replace mine. If you have a heavy wheelchair, don't run it over!

I liked the beginning level when I was learning the puzzle. It flashes when you put in an incorrect answer. The basic level was indeed basic, and the higher levels were challenging.

So, even though you have to find a decent light source to play this game, it really is great for the money. I've seen electronic sudoku for $35, and it only had 10,000 games. So, this is a really good, value priced unit. And you DO get an extra stylus!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for the serious Sudoku fan, March 9, 2006

This works OK, but every puzzle I tried didn't have enough information to actually solve without guessing.

If you aren't a serious Sudoku fan it would be a good choice because it is fun to use, but if you prefer to solve a puzzle through logic don't bother with this device.

I loved this game. I hate having to carry around sudoku workbooks so I got this portable edition. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have a backlight. Everything else is great! I would recommand.
