3 of 5 Great fun Saturday, December 06, 2008
Lisa from Cape Cod Mass  
Good for ages 8+; Shadows & lighting can affect reading screen. More difficult than paper/pencil-can't leave marks in the corner of possibilities like on paper. Great for travel, beach, or waiting for appts. Fun.

2 of 5 Not very good Saturday, December 06, 2008
Cathryn from large town in Kansas  
This is a difficult game to use because of the poor screen quality. It needs to be backlit or something. It is very difficult to read. I would have returned this game, but it was too much of a hassle.

3 of 5 Addictive machine for my Fiance Saturday, December 06, 2008
Ian from Chicago  
If you like Sudoku, this easy electonic version allows you to take it anywhere. My fiance got it as a stocking stuffer and has a hard time putting it down over a month later.

4 of 5 Fun for all ages Saturday, December 06, 2008
John & Diane from Carroll, Iowa  
This game gets lots of play time with the whole family, kids and adults. We even bought one for Grandpa. It challenges the math and logic part of the brain. One thing that could improve it is a backlight so the numbers are easier to read. We all love this game.

1 of 5 Very difficult to read display. Saturday, December 06, 2008
Phil from Kansas City  
The display is difficult to read. It either needs backlighting or an anti-reflective coating on the screen. In order to see the numbers you are required to turn the display to reflect a strong light source, but then the reflection of the light keeps you from seeing the number at the center of the reflection. A great amount of eyestrain results and now the game goes unused. The game itself is OK as far as playing. I prefer puzzles which do not end up with arbitrary endings (i.e. there are two or more possible solutions at the end) but this is at least covered in the documentation. You must arrive at the same solution the game has to win even if a legal solution is displayed.

3 of 5 Great Stress Reliever! Saturday, December 06, 2008
Donna from MD's Eastern Shore  
Recently got hooked on Sudoku -- first the puzzle books, then a web version. Bought this little handheld to take along when I travel, play while waiting, etc. My only complaint is that the screen contrast is not great, so numbers are a little hard to see.

1 of 5 I don't like it at all! Saturday, December 06, 2008
Lydia from FL  
Too dark, can't see the numbers nor the lines. It's needs to be updated, electronics are not made like this anymore. You don't see any black and white TV's or computers anymore, do you? It is horrible! Very unhappy with the product.

4 of 5 Excellent for myself, my 9 & 14 year olds! Saturday, December 06, 2008
Kimberly from Fairplay, Maryland  
Loved this product, the only thing that would make it better would be a light in it, so the kids can play while riding in the vehicles. Everyone in the family loves it!

4 of 5 Great game! Saturday, December 06, 2008
Christine from Los Angeles, CA  
I got this game for my husband for Christmas and he LOVES it. He says the resolution on the screen is clear and the stylus is easy to hold and use. He prefers the touch screen than the pencil and paper versions of Sudoku. Would highly recommend for any Sudoku fan!

2 of 5 could be so much better Saturday, December 06, 2008
Mary Kay from suburb of Chicago  
The screen is very difficult to read making the game hard to play. It would be so much better with improved contrast. The game I have downloaded to my PDA is much better than this and I would use that over this handheld game.

3 of 5 "SUDOKU ADDICTION FULFILLED" Saturday, December 06, 2008
PAULA from BUFFALO, NY  
The game is great for a Sudoku player on the go. It's portable and no pens or pencils are needed. The screen could be a little larger and darker, and if you make a mistake, it's not always easy to find. Overall, though, I'd recommend this game for other Sudoku addicts.

2 of 5 the screen stinks Saturday, December 06, 2008
Cheesedoodle from THE DEEP UNKNOWN  
The screen is painful on the eyes; the numbers are made up of those little bars like on alarm clocks. The thing functions pretty well but the person I gave it to uses it to get puzzles, then writes them down on paper to solve. Would not recommend for its intended purpose.

Donna from Durham, NC  
This product is easy to carry in my purse and allows me to spend "down time" doing what I love - play Sudoku. I'd like to see it improved by making the backlight brighter.

4 of 5 Fun... heck, Addictive. JUST IMPROVE THE SCREEN! Saturday, December 06, 2008
jonny from Tampa  
The game is fun. Actually just as addictive as any Sudoku, but more convenient. I bought this for my mom who is a major Sudoku nut, but ended up playing with it myself and will need to buy a second! But the backlighting is HORRIBLE!!! You need to be in direct sunlight in order to read the numbers. And if your far-sighted.. forget it. The numbers are very small.

3 of 5 Needs to be brighter Saturday, December 06, 2008
Kami from Vancouver  
I like the game and the features, but the face is dark and unless you're playing in a brightly lit area, it is very hard to see the numbers. It would play better if there was a dial to brighten the screen which there isn't. Other than that, it is very user friendly!

Susan from Laguna Beach  
The idea of this handheld is great and the puzzles are fairly challenging, but it is VERY difficult to see the grids or numbers. I changed the batteries hoping that would fix the problem but it made no difference. I would not reccomend this particular product.

I bought this game for my sister for Christmas. When she opened it, some of the numbers would not light up like they were supposed to. I was very displeased. I would not recommend buying items from your company to anyone.
