Some of the games are unsolvable, or have multiple viable solutions. Maybe there should be something in the coding to check if its solvable?

Also, this should have some kind of 'difficulty' selection... Then, newbies to Sudoku (such as I) wouldn't be totally clueless as to where the numbers go. It seems I ended up with a Hard puzzle, maybe..... Pros might start, and might end up with an insultingly easy puzzle, thus rating the game low, and causing another financial depression in the United States of America, on Earth.. (Just kidding about the financial depression thing... Sudoku difficulty has nothing to do with that... most likely...)

@lunarplex: if you click near the bottom of the square you can type in smaller numbers that are your notes. Great game, nice and simple.

I like Sudoku, and this (like JJ52 said) is nice and simple. Plus, there's a button you can click to learn how to make Sudoku. (I think that's what it does, haven't tried clicking it yet) The 'hint' button means that a timer (to show how long you took) would be pointless. Paraphrasing what Skeelful08 said (though I haven't, and won't, click it) .. you can just click your way to a solved puzzle, without any brainwork. So, someone could just click Hint really fast, and their tome would read something like 00:02. They'd forever have the top score (despite not actually earning it).

sorry 2 stars since some games are non-deterministic (multiple possible solutions). You need a better algorithm
